Pagination

From LISWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The system of marking the pages of a written or printed document with consecutive Arabic numbers to indicate their order. Front matter is normally paged in Roman numerals. Pagination is rare in manuscripts and documents printed prior to 1500 A.D., and did not become common practice until about 1550 when it replaced foliation.
