Many manuals use numbering scheme chapter, page number. In that case just offset is not enought. The page numbers look e.g. like I-1, I-2, ... II-1, II-2,...

Or there may be some pages (e.g. with pictures only) that are not numbered at all, but we can paginate the whole pdf anew using BeCyPDFMetaEdit pagination tool(Pages Tab), it takes about five minutes for average complex book and newbie.
First we have to find out where the Roman and Arabic numbers start and end in our book and are there any gaps like pictures without numbers etc. and then using add button select appropriate values to repaginate book anew.
e.g. let's say our book is 16 pages long, with cover, next three pages not numbered, next four pages Roman letters, other pages numbered in Arabic.
You then click add button, choose from page 1, style no-numbering, offset 1, prefix (you type in Cover or something similar).
Then click on add button again, from page (choose 2), style no-numbering, off set 3 (because there are three non-numbered pages), prefix (you can leave empty).
Click on add button, from page 5 (because there is cover + three empty pages before), style Roman, off set 4.
Click on add button, from page 9, style Arabic, off set (you can leave it as 1 and the pages till the end of book will be numbered incrementally).
