ebookpages
I have a pages document that I want to copy a JPG into and make the JPG take up the whole first page with no margins. Then I want the rest of the pages to keep their margins as I've already specified.
I have the jpg copied into pages, but I can't make it any bigger than the margins and there is still a header and footer.
Thanks in advance!
It appears that while a Layout Break has the option to start a new page or not start a new page,
a Section Break always starts a new page. Thus, the header at the top of the page is always from the same section as the footer at the bottom of the page.
This just worked for me.
Create your you four pages.
Click on the last page (4) and then 'insert' a section break.
Now with page 5 selected ( click inside page)
Go to the 'Layout inspector' and set it to:
Insert Autopage Numbers. Settings:
You can now insert more pages and the numbers continue.
The first 4 pages have no numbers. And page 5 starts from 1 with the rest continuing on consecutively

Are you talking about an actual ePub ebook that you create from a Pages Word Processing document, or just a PDF you create from a Pages document?
If you make the image floating or in the background, you can move it around without being hindered by the margins or other text. To make your object floating or in the background, open the Inspector window (with the blue "i" icon in the toolbar), then click on "Wrap inspector" (third button from the left), and choose your Object placement.
However, converting to ePub removes floating objects, so if you want that, you should edit your eBook (using sigil for example) to add the first page back in. This is not too hard if you know some HTML.
