page numbering problem

You want black page numbers on the colored background ?
This will certainly work, when the rectangles are on the MP
on a lower layer.
Prints perhaps ONLY if you have a Postscript printer.
The MP are the basic layer for each page.
Everything else comes on top of the stack.
E.g. a large white rectangle on the cover page
enables you to edit this page with a "new design".

Thanks for info about page numbering. I have realised that to do what I need to do I will have to manually place numbering on the publication pages. If the MP's are always the base layer then anything I place on non MP's will obscure the numbers. Seems a bit odd unless it is possible to designate the MP's as top layer?
...obscure the numbers...
You can place transparent rectangles (bordercolor only) on a non-MP-page at the place
of a MP pagenumber, then the numbers are not obscured, but what´s the purpose ?
It´s true, considering the layers as a stack, then the MP is the bottom of the stack.
I am interested, whether my booklet is understandable (revision just put in the WEB).

Maybe I'm missing something here.
What I am trying to do is create a 16 page page document with different coloured pages which cover the entire page area.
If I could have a uniform colour throughout, no problem - place it on the MP.
I could use transparent boxes as you suggest to allow the numbering to be seen but that will be a compromise.
So, manual placement seems the only solution (easy with 16 pages but I wouldn't be so keen with a large document)
thanks again

It´s worth a discussion, because it´s fundamental.
No problem, if you use different PAPER colors.
But printing the color or pattern on the page will
certainly hide the page number. Numbering by hand
is - so far- the only solution.
But it´s a fundamental problem, because in some books
the IMAGES cover the number area.
