### How to get rid of page numbers

The package nopageno will suppress page numbers in a whole document.

To suppress page numbers from a single page, use `\``thispagestyle{empty}` somewhere within the text of the page. (Note that `\``maketitle` and `\``chapter` both use `\``thispagestyle` internally, so you need to call it after you've called them.)

To suppress page numbers from a sequence of pages, you may use `\``pagestyle{empty}` at the start of the sequence, and restore the original page style at the end. Unfortunately, you still have to use `\``thispagestyle` after any `\``maketitle` or `\``chapter` command.

In the memoir class, the troublesome commands (`\``maketitle`, `\``chapter`, etc.) invoke their own page style (`title`, `chapter`, etc.), which you may redefine using the class's own techniques to be equivalent to "`empty`". The KOMA-script classes have commands that contain the page style to be used, so one might say:

>     \renewcommand*{\titlepagestyle}{empty}

An alternative (in all classes) is to use the rather delightful `\``pagenumbering{gobble}`; this has the simple effect that any attempt to print a page number produces nothing, so there's no issue about preventing any part of LaTeX from printing the number. However, the `\``pagenumbering` command does have the side effect that it resets the page number (to 1), which may be undesirable.

The scrpage2 package separates out the representation from the resetting; so one can say

>     \renewcommand*{\pagemark}{}

to have the same effect as the `gobble` trick, without resetting the page number.
