Although it might seem a tad pointless, I am trying to number pages in a
document without using Arabic numerals (0, 1, 2 etc.). I would like the
reading to similar to "PAGE ONE" or "FIRST PAGE." I'm doing this for graphic
design purposes, and although I have come up with some information, I'm having
a bit of a hard time piecing it all together.

Should I be using **枚** and **ページ** combined with **一つ**? Maybe one or the
other? What I have come up with so far is **初めにページ** , but I have the feeling
that isn't quite right since I kind of duct taped it together.

Numbering pages (ex. PAGE ONE)
In my experience, I have found that the pages in books/documents are numbered
the same way English books or documents are numbered, the Arabic number is
sufficient. If you have a prologue, or a preliminary section with an
introduction, you can use the lower case roman numerals.

If you're looking for something more formal where you physically write "Page
1, Page 2, ..." on the pages, then 「１頁、２頁、...」should be fine. In this second
method you could use Kanji just fine as well: 「一頁、二頁、...」

answer
If the purpose is purely visual, you could use 一頁, 二頁, and so on, where 頁 is
the kanji used for ページ, and the reading remains いちぺーじ、にぺーじ.

For more information, you can try searching for ノンブル, which is the term used
for the concept of page numbering, as described
[here](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%8E%E3%83%B3%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB),
but there seems to be very little about using numbering that doesn't involve
Arabic numerals.
