- see footer for list info -<
Is that possible? I've taken a look at the iText docs and it requires Java programming skills which I don't have. And that's assuming a CF installation will allow you to access iText directly. Hopefully #totalpagecount# is on the Scorpio "to do" list.

ColdFusion doesn't see it as a variables at all. It's definately an internal var for the PDF engine. Is there another way to detect or calculate the number of PDF pages generated? I've Googled for an answer but no joy.
