In fields that require you to enter page numbers (for example, the Export as PDF
dialog box), you must enter the complete page number, including any prefix, or
an absolute page number. An absolute page number is a page’s actual position
relative to the first page of a document, regardless of the way in which the
document is sectioned. To specify an absolute page number in a dialog box,
precede the number you enter with a plus (+) sign. For example, to display the
first page in a document, enter “+1.”
