Hi
I would like to have in the header the pagenumber and the total number
of pages in the header in the format" page n of m". In the fancyheader
manual I have found that I have to use the package "lastpage" so I've
put in the preamble:
\usepackage{lastpage}
\fancyhf{}
\fancyhead[LE,RO]{\thepage\ of \pageref{lastpage}}
The result I get is: 2 of ?? (on page 2 for instance).
I don't get any error messages but it seems that it is unknown how many
pages the document has. How can I solve this?
Hi,
I'm not an expert, but looking at the fancy header manual (e.g. section
16 on page 15, you should use
\pageref{LastPage}
instead of
\pageref{lastpage}
For me, this small change is sufficient to have a correct last page number.
Also, you do have warnings that could have pointed you to this:
In Documents->LaTeX Log you can access the log, in which you can see
several warnings (in blue) from latex saying:
"LaTeX Warning: Reference `lastpage' on page 1 undefined on input line
37." (the page number and line number can be different for you)
Best regards,
Olivier
