In my case page count still gives the real number. For example, the last page of my 11 page document would have the footer (page 10 of 11). Is there a solution for that?
The situation is more problematic than you suggest, in fact. If you use the manual page break technique to separate your first, unnumbered page from your other, numbered pages and start those at page 1, the automatically inserted blank page is counted in the page count - even if you select not to print it. In this case, your page count for a one-plus-ten-page document would be 12, and your last page would say "10 of 12".
No, I don't know of a proper solution. Sorry. As a workaround, you could simply enter the page count manually: there is no absolute need for it to be a field. Instead of "Page <Page Number> of <Page Count>", just use "Page <Page Number> of 10". You need make this change only once, of course: because it is in a footer, the effect is still automatically populated to all pages in that page style. But it does mean that you need to check and correct the page count after editing and before each printing.
I trust this helps. Brian Barker --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
