How can I combine footer templates?
FOOTERS: I want to have the document name on the left and Page x of xx ie.
total # of pages on the right. The templates let you have one or the other, but I can't combine them. When I custom create the footer myself, I can't get "Page x of xx ie, total pages", only Page x. |

How can I combine footer templates?
Create the footer yourself and at the left margin, hold down the Ctrl key
and press F9 to insert a pair of field delimiters that look like { }. Inside them type the word "filename" without the quotes. Then press the tab key twice, type the word "Page "do the Ctrl + F9 again and inside the { }, type "page". Move the cursor outside the closing } of that field and then type " of ". After that use Ctrl+F9 again and inside the { }, type "numpages". I you want the word Pages to appear, add it at the end. You should then have { filename } Page { page } of { numpages } Pages Press Alt+F9 to toggle off the display of field codes. Note that these field constructions are available as autotext on the headers and footers toolbar. Or, instead of creating the fields from scratch as above, they can be inserted via the InsertFields menu item -- Hope this helps.
