I want to eliminate the page number on the first page as per standard literary manuscript practice. When I attempt this, it deletes all pagination. Any way to delete just the first page number?

Choose Section, and make the
Hide…
Start at:
These settings will hide the page number (and any other Header and Footer content) on the cover page, and display page numbers in the header or footer box, starting with 2 on the frst content page.

Insert a Section Break at the end if the text on the cover page.
Go to the first content page, choose Section, and make these settings:
