In the preamble I have:

\usepackage{fancyhdr ...

Roman Page Numbers for Front Matter

Hi!

Must be the dumbest question, but haven't found how to achieve it. I am normally used to MS Word, but new to LaTeX on this thing.

hi!

Sorry for that, I just thought that it was just another small question so might as well ask here instead of starting a new topic. I will be more careful next time about this.

Kind regards

Re: fancyhdr | Horizontal Line above the Footer

Thank you Thorsten! It worked :)

Is there any partiular font you/someone else would recommend ? I am trying to figure out if there is any other that is better than Times New Roman. I have heard that Minion Pro is suppose to be good?
