Hi

I have just started to scan all my recipe books in order to view them on my Xoom. I decided to keep them as pdf's so as not to mess up the page formats etc (too much work to change them all). However, I am trying to work out how I can insert a front cover scan to the pdf file, without messing up the numbering of pages. As it is a recipe book, I really want to keep the pages the same as those in the paper copy so that I can easily jump to recipes, having looked in the index (which I will bookmark). Does anyone have any ideas how I could do this? Is it possible to NOT number some pages at the beginning (I already decided I would have to lose the introduction etc)? I don't think this would be possible but you never know! I really want to keep an image of the front cover so that my books look good in my "library".

Thanks
