How to add section numbering when using Sphinx with rst2pdf

Question

I am unable to turn on automatic section numbering using Sphinx together with rst2pdf.

The sectnum directive does not work. Is it possible to achieve this result somehow?

I use rst2pdf **0.16** and Sphinx **1.1.3** (`make latexpdf`), and both give me automatic section numbering. What does *together* mean? — tshepang, Jul 17 '13 at 14:58

As seen in the The Rst2pdf Handbook, you can do:

Are there any options to this directive? – Axel Advento Mar 15 '14 at 07:55
This only works with a single document sphinx-doc, no nested toctree stuff is supported – Stefan Sprenger Dec 02 '15 at 14:41
