Page Layout ⇒ How do I avoid all page numbers from all pages of my book ?

[drpartha]

I am creating a document using the "book" class. I do not want the page number in appear in any of the pages. How do I achieve this ? I do not use fancyhdr package or any fancy headers/footers. I tried placing \pagestyle{empty}and \thispagestyle{empty} , but I still get page numbers in some pages. Do not see any pattern in this, so am not able to eliminate the problem. I did a search in this forum and also Googled extensively. The cases/solutions are for specific cases only. I am surely missing something fundamentally. Would appreciate any clues. from this forum.

Thanks,

Without minimal working example I cannot say anything definitely. However, in several cases:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[manualmark]{scrlayer-scrpage}
\clearpairofpagestyles

should do it. If running heads still should be used, the alternative suggestion:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[automark]{scrlayer-scrpage}
\renewcommand*{\pagemark}{}

should help.
