Thank you for your help so far.

Your instructions will allow me to place a page number in the center of the long edge, but they will not allow me to do so along the short edge of the page in the center. Is this a hopeless cause?


I've been playing with this and here's something that will work.

1. Set your page format to Landscape. Turn *off* headers and footers.

2. Find the Frame Style in the Stylist. Modify the default frame style (or create a new one) to position it appropriately. You will probably need to play around with this part.

3. Insert a text frame. Specify the position as Left and Middle (vertically).

3. Click outside the frame and then once again inside it so that you can add text. Insert the page number field.

4. Go into the Stylist and find the paragraph style "Frame contents". Right click, Modify.

5. Find the Position tab. In the middle of the dialog -- set the Rotation to 270 degrees.

6. When you get the first one positioned the way you like it, simply make sure that the whole thing is selected (borders are highlighted with little boxes in the corners) and Edit -> Copy.

7. On every page of your Landscape table, just click on the page somewhere and press Cntl-V. This will insert a copy of that original frame, complete with page number field, in the same physical location on the page.

8. Done.



A bit more tedious than it possibly could be, but it can be done.
