To get started, go to Insert - Page Number - Top of Page (or wherever you want it) - Plain Number 3 (or whichever suits your needs.
The Header should now have opened for you. If not, you can double-click on the Header area to open it. Alternatively, you can go to Insert - Header.
If I didnt want the first page (the cover page) to not have a page number, I can check the box Different First Page under the Design tab that shows up when the Header is opened.
However, on the next page, the number 2 shows up. If I wanted this to start as 1, I would need to change it.
To change it, right-click the number and click Format Page Numbers
You can also go under the Design tab, click Page Number - Format Page Numbers to find the same menu.
Change the Start at: field to 0.
The number on the second page should now be a 1
