I have a documente with 11 x 17 pages (foldouts) and I want to number them as
two pages (i.e., 3/4) and then continue on the next page with 5. How do I do
this?

Assuming that you have Section Breaks either side of the 11 x 17 page,
unlink the header/footer in that Section from that in the previous Section
and in the following Section, unlink them from the header footer in the 11 x
17 Section.

In the header/footer of the 11 x 17 Section, insert a { PAGE } field where
you want the 3 to appear and where you want the 4 to appear, insert the
following field construction

{ = { PAGE } + 1 }

Then in the next Section (where you want the page numbering to start from 5,
either via the Format Page Number dialog, set the starting number to 5 and
use a { PAGE } field, or insert the following field construction

{ = { PAGE } + 2 }

You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters { } and you use
Alt+F9 to toggle off their display.
