Page Numbering - How do I...

[JimmyJOL]

Hi Guys,

A client wants me to number his pages in the format, 2 of 7, 3 of 7, 4 of 7, etc. Does anyone know how to do this in S 6/7? Thank you.

Be Well,

Jimmy

Jimmy,
It's actually pretty cool to do. You need to use wildcards.

Say you have 7 pages, you would put this text on a repeating header "Page \$PageNum\ of 7"

Basically, if you put the text "\$PageNum\" in any text field, it will display the current page

It's that simple. If you need more help, refer to section 5.16 in the reference manual. Best of luck!!!

Transcriber,

Thank you for your reply. This makes sense. I will try it and hope.

Also, read deeper into that part of manual and learned some things. Thanks for the tip.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Be Well,
