page x of y, and x starts on pg 3 of the doc...
I have a title page & toc BEFORE my pg. 1 and i want my "y" to start on pg 1
not 3. example: Title page (no pg #), TOC (pg. i), then the document starts (pg 1 of ??) I want the end number to begin with the document, not the title page. How do i change this? |

You'll have to use a calculated field for Y: { = { NUMPAGES } - 2 }

1. Press Ctrl+F9 to insert a field. Type:
= - 2 2. Between the equals sign and the minus sign (hyphen), click the Insert Number of Pages button on the Header and Footer toolbar. 3. Press F9 to update the field. -- Suzanne S.
