--- Comment #2 from tracey002 <[email protected]> 2011-06-09 22:08:01 --- Created an attachment (id=76599) --> (http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=76599) manually update file Accurately updating [\nofpages] is important. Existing documents are affected by changes in page size/orientation, font size, and margin size. Missing from OpenOffice Writer is:{\field{\*\fldinst \\nofpages}{\fldrslt 2}} for the number of pages. OpenOffice Writer uses:{\field{\*\fldinst \\page}{\fldrslt 1}} for the {current} page number. Any help with this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tracey I would use msWordPad because I do NOT need a complicated format, but WordPad does not do headers or footers. AbiWord handles the RTF page count, but I'd rather use the OpenOffice Suite (writer in conjunction with calc). I can manually add [\nofpages] and writer recognizes the entry as a field OK and it saves OK, but does not update the field when adding or deleting pages. RTF page controls per Spec: \chpgn (for page number) AND \nofpages OpenOffice Writer seems to use the undocumented [\\page] instead of the documented [\chpgn] does NOT fully recognize [\nofpages]. Applicable Specification Entries: \field - introduces a field destination, which contains the text of fields. \nofpages - Number of pages \fldinst - Field instructions. This is a destination control word. \fldrslt - Most recent calculated result of the field. This is a destination control word. \chpgn - Current page number (as in headers). -- Configure bugmail: http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Bugzilla.
