Hi Suzanne,
I found an issue that resulted from doing a mail merge. They page numbers
are all working until after the mail merge. After the merge, all the pages
now are displaying page 1 and it is not a field anymore. Is there anyway I
can keep the page field after the merge so the formula for the page numbering
stays?
Thank you so much,
Danny

After you have inserted the page number in the header/footer, press
Alt+F9
to display the { PAGE } field code. Add a numeric picture switch as
follows:
{ PAGE \# 00000# }
Press F9 to update the field and display the number 000001. Add the N or
S
outside the PAGE field.
If the signature page is always the last page, you don't even need a
section
break, just a conditional field, as follows:
{ IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES } "{ PAGE \# 00000# }S" "{ PAGE \#
00000# }N" }

My client has a bunch of contract templates that they use and need to
have
the page number in s certain format (*000001N*). The N is for a
normal
contract page. The signature page will need to be suffixed with a S
(*000003S*). The problem is when they add stuff to a page the
signature
page
sometimes gets off set. I need to find a way to do a customer number
that
has leading zeros. I can use sections to use the N or S on the doc
but I
need to find a way to add a custom format so I can start the page
number
at
000000. Can anyone help me?
Thank you!
