Anyway, what other unusual page numbering systems do we find in the old books? I'm sure the PG and DP veterans can share some unusual things they've encountered.
Denzinger's _Echiridion Symbolorum et Definitionum_ has: Preferatory material with Roman numerals (fortunately starting with the title page as page I) Text (arabic numerals) An appendix with a separate arabic numeration scheme (page numbers followed by asterisks) An index, with a separate arabic numeration scheme (page numbers in square brackets) As an additional wrinkle, each paragraph is individually numbered, and the work is cited by paragraph number, not by page.
