I noticed that the line numbering starts from the title and adds the one line space between the title and the first line. Consequently the first line becomes number 3. Any solution?
You need a solution only when you have a problem. Line numbering is 
numbering all your lines; what's the problem, please?
o The purpose of line numbering is normally to be able to refer to 
specific lines in a document. Any title occupies a line (or perhaps 
multiple lines) and may need to be referred to like any other. So you 
would surely normally want it to be included in line numbering?
o You talk of "one line space" between the title and the remainder of 
the text. Are you using a typewriter?! The way to achieve extra 
spacing between items in a word processor document is to apply 
spacing before or after paragraphs in the paragraph formatting or 
paragraph style formatting. Think of vertical distance rather than 
"lines". If you choose instead to insert an empty line - using line 
breaks - or (more likely what you have done) to insert an empty 
paragraph, you are choosing to insert an extra line and you would 
expect it to be numbered.
o If you insist on having empty lines, you can except them from 
numbering by removing the tick from Count | Blank lines in the Line 
Numbering dialogue.
o If you need some paragraphs - for example, your title - not to be 
included in the numbering, you can arrange this by removing the tick 
from "Include this paragraph in line numbering" on the Outline & 
Numbering tab in Paragraph formatting. You can do this piecemeal in 
local paragraph formatting or in paragraph style formatting. The 
styles route is always better, of course.
I trust this helps.
