Re: Page count for the Book

["Becky Swanson" <becky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Daniel,

The way I've always done this is to put a spot cross-reference at the end of the
last paragraph on the last page. For simplicity, I call it "EndOfBook". Then, on
each Master Page footer, I put a cross-reference to that marker with the format
set up to pick up the page number. It's always worked. If you always use the
same name for the End-of-Book marker, you can put the cross-reference into your
template.

Hope that works for you!

Subject: Page count for the Book


I want to show the chapter title and the total number of pages for the
book in a footer, something like:
"Repairing your computer" 23 of 75

I am able to display the total number of pages for the chapter but not
the book, as follows:
"Chapter One" 1 of 12 and if Chapter Two has ten pages then the footer
reads:
"Chapter Two" 11 of 22 and so on.

Is there a way?

TIA

Daniel Reagan
