Customizable page numbers for different sections in Google Docs.
Google Docs now allows users to customize which sections of a document include page numbers and specify the starting number for those sections. This enables users to exclude cover pages or tables of contents from the page count and start numbering from the main body of the document. This feature can be accessed via Insert > Page Numbers > More options.
