Does anyone know how to add/subject pages when using the NUMPAGES
field? See field code as follows: { NUMPAGES \# "0" \* Arabic \*
MERGEFORMAT }
I've seen it done before, but don't know how to manually modify the
field code; i.e., where to put the + 4 and what codes to use with it.
You want to create a formula field, and make the NUMPAGES field part of its
formula.
Put the + 4 after the closing brace of the NUMPAGES field that you already
have. Also type an equal sign (=) before the starting brace. You should have
= { NUMPAGES \# "0" \* Arabic \* MERGEFORMAT } + 4
Now select the whole thing, from the equal sign to the 4, and press Ctrl+F9.
That encloses the selected text in another pair of field braces. Update the
resulting field to see the new number.
