CHANGE PAGE NUMBERING

I have a 33 page pdf file that I scanned into my computer. I need to renumber pages 1 (a cover) and 2 (a Table of Contents) as i and ii the third page which is page one of the actual document needs to be numberd as page 1- so that when a viewer wants to jump to page 1 the viewer is directed to page 1, not the cover. Any solutions?

Hi Nick,
Open the 'Page Thumbnails' to the left of the open PDF file.
Right-click in the first thumbnail and select 'Number Pages…'
In the dialog box click on 'Selected' under 'Pages' and choose '1' To: '2' of '33'
Specify the numbering style as 'i, ii, iii…' and click OK.
Acrobat should renumber the first two pages as 'i' and 'ii' and renumber the following ones from 1 to 31.
Hope this helps.

With Acrobat, open the thumbnail/pages nav panel select on the first page you want to renumber. Use the right mouse click to bring up the context menu and select "Number pages ...". Complete the pop-up window as needed. Repeat for next series of pages.

The above only changes the page numbering for navigation.
