### How to get rid of page numbers

The package nopageno will suppress page numbers in a whole document.

To suppress page numbers from a single page, use `\thispagestyle{empty}` somewhere within the text of the page. (Note that `\maketitle` and `\chapter` both use `\thispagestyle` internally, so you need to call it after you've called them.)

To suppress page numbers from a sequence of pages, you may use `\pagestyle{empty}` at the start of the sequence, and restore the original page style at the end. Unfortunately, you still have to use `\thispagestyle` after any `\maketitle` or `\chapter` command.

An alternative is to use the rather delightful `\pagenumbering{gobble}`; this has the simple effect that any attempt to print a page number produces nothing, so there's no issue about preventing any part of LaTeX from printing the number. However, the `\pagenumbering` command does have the side effect that it resets the page number (to 1), which may be undesirable.
