This does change the _style_ of the page numbering. If you change the
style you might want to start again by 1 with the new style, so
additionally one needs to reset the counter

\setcounter{page}{1}
        % might be zero, depending if the increment is done
        % before the use or afterwards, cannot rememner

hence you can number preface as

\setcounter{page}{1}
\pagenumbering{Roman}
 ... text...

with pagenumber like I,II,III,IV,V, ...XXI, ... (roman would result in
i,ii,iii,iv,...)

then do

\setcounter{page}{1}
\pagenumbering{arabic}

and the result is 1,2,3, as expected

by teh way, chapter can be renumbered the same way, hence on can start
with chapter 0 by setting

\setcounter{chapter}{0}

the style of a counter can be changed directly by redefining the
"\the<countername>" command.

GRAPHICS:


\usepackage{graphics} %\graphicspath{{pics/}} % sets a searchpath for graphics

includes a graphic, size can be defined and teh picture will be scaled to
this size, so more than one picture (without bonding box may be) can be
placed on one page

\parbox{0.5\textwidth}{%
\hfil
\includegraphics[height=3.5cm]{foo.eps}
\hfil}
