Page number on 1st page

How can i hide page # on 1st page without having to repeat header on pages 1
& 2

You want to use the Different First Page option in File - Page Setup -
Layout tab.

You can do it with a conditional page number. Take a look at

this still needs header/footer typing in twice

i was looking for an option to hide page number on 1st page but retain the
rest of the header/footer information - i dont think it's possible

Sorry, it does _not_ require typing in twice, unless you have set your
section to have a different first page header/footer. Please read the page.

{ IF { Page } > 1 "{ Page }" }

If in the header or footer, this will print a page number on any page except
page 1 (or 0). If you do have your section set to have a different first
page, then yes, you have two headers and two footers and can simply put the
page number in the header or footer.
