Default Suzanne's Page Number Scheme

You'll need to add a bookmark to the page you want to reference. For
example, insert a bookmark named "test" on the relevant page. For the
cross-reference, insert a field as follows:

{ = ({PAGEREF test}+1)/2 }

To show/hide field codes, use Alt+F9. To update fields in the selection,
press F9.

I posted an issue several weeks ago and got a response from Suzanne re
getting each odd page numbered sequentially as 1,2,3,4...... and not
numbering the even pages. The field was {=({page}+1)/2}
Next thing to try, how can I get a PageRef field to recognize the page
number created from this scheme rather that the global (not sure if this
is
the correct term) page number, which includes the title page (it is not
numbered). Basicall the third page is numbered 1, the fifth page is
numbered 2, etc
So if I insert a PageRef field in the thirteenth page and refer to the
fifth
page, the field should display the number 2. And if the fifth page
becomes
the seventh page, the PageRef field will display three after it is
updated.
