how to add page numbers in Pages starting from the fifth page
I've written a 250 page document and want to number the pages but have them start from the fifth page in, not the first page. How is this done, please?

In your menu Insert > Section Break between page 4 and page 5. Page 5 on is now in a new section.
Make thumbnails visible via View at left of the Toolbar and click page 5.
In the Section tab in the formatting panel at the right click the radio button for Start at: and enter the page number you want to start with.

"This didn't work because the page number options were greyed out. "
Did you UNcheck the "Match previous section" checkbox AND select the "Start at" radio button shown in SGIII's response?
Both these steps are necessary to activate the Page Number setting in the Section format panel.

This didn't work because the page number options were greyed out. I solved the problem by deleting the first five pages and beginning from the new page 1.
Thanks for your help.
