Thanks Doug, awesome programming twist & pirouettes.

Where would one find information on the language to program fields?

Tell them to use a type writer to put the number on each page. g

You can do something like

{IF { PAGE } 300 { IF { PAGE } 304 "{ = { PAGE } - { SEQ extra }-{ =
{ PAGE } -300 \# "00" }" "{ = { PAGE } - 3 }"} { PAGE } }

But using a typewriter is probably easier.

Of course, if you are just printing the extra pages, and they are in a
separate document, then you can use

300-0{ PAGE }

Then you pages will be numbered 300-01, 300-02, 300-03, etc.

Thanks Doug,

Perhaps we move in the computer world, you & I, but the city councils
don't. ;-)

There is no way that can be done automatically, and I would strongly
suggest that you do not do it, as, over the years other things will
change such as the printer that you use to print the document and that
may result in a change in the way that the document is paginated.

It is the sort of thing that was done in the days of typewriters. You
are in the computer age now and should take advantage of the
improvements in technology that have been introduced with it.

Hello everyone,

Puzzle: How to number a long document with amendment pages? That is
once an official document is written and paginated, it will change
through amendments throughout the years.Is it possible to number the
"new" pages like the following example:
Page 300-01. The original document is page 300 but the new version with
change bar and all should have a dash 01 etc.

All suggestions are welcomed
