@section without page numbering reset

Hi,
I'm having a problem with page numbering.
I have the following layout (simplified):
some header fields here
current page number
total pages
<?start:body?>
<?for-each@section>
some fields here
<?end for-each?>
<?end body?>
Very simple. Except that I don't want the page numbering to reset. Is there anyway use @section and NOT reset page numbers with each break?
Any ideas?
Thanks.

aaaahhhhhh !!!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot . I was trying for this solution very badly.. How did you find the solution ? Can you point me to the reference so that I can have it for future issues/reference
Once again thank u so much for updating the thread with the solution !!!

End on even without page numbering

Hi.
I have this RTF template that I'm using to generate a pdf file with lots of invoices.
I'm printing this PDF in duplex mode. For that to be possible I had to use this tag to add a blank page to the end of each invoice in case it ends in an odd page:
<?section:force-page-count;'end-on-even'?>
The problem is that when the last page is added, it still shows the page numbering that I inserted on the header. My client is complaining about it.
Is there any way I could add a last page without showing the page numbering?
Thanks a lot.
PS: I've read every post out there about Terms&Conditions but they didn't help.

AR Customer statements report Page numbers Reset based on customer number

Hello,
In the AR Customer statements report, If I ran the report for multiple customers, page number has to be reset for each customer...
Group Started like below,
<?for-each-group:G_STATEMENT;STATEMENT_DATE?><?for-each-group:current-group();SEND_TO_ADDRESS_ID?>

Hi Kittu,
I got the answer using @section command.
Below are the complete syntax in my case.
Form field --Xml Tag
If Data Found --<?choose@section:?><?when:count(G_SETUP)!=0?>
Group G_SETUP --<?for-each@section:G_SETUP?>
Group G_STATEMENT --<?for-each-group@section:G_STATEMENT;STATEMENT_DATE?><?for-each-group@section:current-group();SEND_TO_ADDRESS_ID?>
Its working for me.
Let me know if you required more information.

Change Start page numbering to Auto Page numbering in the Numbering & Section Options using script

1. I have many documents to add into a book. After adding the documents, all file page numbers should be continued from the previous file. Now I am doing manually for all files at all time. Numbering & Section Options => Start Page Numbering at: to Automatic Page Numbering.
2. And also I need to add the Chapter number with the page number (Ex: 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 … , 2/2, 2/3, 2/4 …., 3/2, 3/3, 3/4 ….). Here also I am doing manually like. Numbering & Section Options => Page Numbering => Section Prefix: 1 and Include Prefix When Numbering Pages. (The page number should start from 2).
Note: In Every chapter opening there will be a file name called S… (Ex: Ch 1: S3391.indd, Ch 2: S3392.indd, Ch 3: S3393.indd). So after every S(S3391, S3392 …) file the next file page number should starts from 1/2, 1/3. 2/2, 2/2 ….
Ex:
Chapter 1          Pages
S3391.indd
32457.indd       1/2 … 1/5
32617.indd       1/6 ….. 1/9
32217.indd       1/10 … 1/13
Chapter 2
S3392.indd
42457.indd       2/2 … 2/3
52617.indd       2/4 ….. 2/9
33217.indd       2/10 … 2/13
Could anyone give me an idea or script, please? At least for First one, could anyone suggest me ASAP.
P.S: I have some more questions regarding this, I will post that after some time...
Thanks in Advance,
Thiru

Re-write numerical page numbers to roman numerals for an introduction?

Hi there everybody,
I've been attempting (for some considerable time!) to typeset and format a book. The book needs to have roman numerals running from the first title page (which is in reality left blank through using a secondary master page without page numbers). However, I didn't realise I would need to use roman numerals in the introduction, and instead started the page numbers from the first title page of the introduction. Therefore, my pages that are numbered by roman numerals (copyright page etc) stop at this point and in the introduction become numbers.
I need to change it so it is roman numerals up until the first page of the actual book, all through the introduction, but when I try to change it in the Numbers and Sections tab, it tells me that i've already used the numbers i've typed in.
Basically I would like to know how to take off the first set of roman numeral page numbers and start again??
I'm very confused!! Help would be MUCH appreciated.

Page numbering - multiple repeating frames

Hi,
It’s a bit tricky in explaining this but I shall try to do my best.
This is an invoice report with 2 parts (everything in the main section), main invoice and summary. The main invoice is in repeating frame R2 and summary (matrix report) is in repeating frame R3. Both the repeating frames are encompassed in repeating frame R1.
Each part of the report should have page numbering (1 of 2 type) and the numbering should be independent of each other (for main invoice and summary).
Main invoice has page numbering reset (both current page number and total number of pages) at R2 and summary's page numbering is being reset at R3. The report is working fine for a single invoice but when running it for multiple invoices the output is as below
Inv# 100 - Main Section 1 of 2
------------------------------2 of 2
Summary 1 of 1
Inv# 101 - Main Section 2 of 3
------------------------------3 of 3
Summary 3 of 3
Inv# 102 - Main Section 2 of 3
------------------------------3 of 3
Summary 3 of 3
where as the desired output is
Inv# 100 - Main Section 1 of 2
------------------------------2 of 2
Summary 1 of 1
Inv# 101 - Main Section 1 of 2
------------------------------2 of 2
Summary 1 of 1
Inv# 102 - Main Section 1 of 2
------------------------------1 of 2
Summary 1 of 1
It would be worth not to change the report's design as there are many frames, fields,..... but I don't know how to resolve this numbering problem.
I am using reports 6i.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Any inputs would be appreciated.

Page Numbering, Arabic then Standard Numerical

Hi Everyone,
I am using the most recent version of pages on LION. I know that there are a few related forums but mine is very specific. I need to begin my thesis with the first few pages (abstract, acknowledgements, table of contents) as Arabic, then I need to have a table of contents after the first few pages which not only includes the Arabic numbering of the abstract and acknowledgements,but also has the rest of my thesis in there which begins with the introductions (the page after my table of contents) which should begin at page 1.
To simplify, the first few pages need to be in Arabic, the next set of pages (about 50) need to be standard (1,2,3,4...50..). Both the Arabic and standard numerical must both be listed in the table of contents which would technically be on pages 3 & 4 but should be visually listed as page iii & iv.
Thank you! Courtney
EX:
Abstract...i
Acknowledgements....ii
Table of Contents....iii & iv
Intro.....1
Lit Review....2
Etc.....3-50.

You can always add any text but it will not be part of the automatic TOC. If you are going to print the document it will probably not matter.
The page numbers in the first part can't be in the footer as it will affect all pages in the document.
I presume you will print the document? If so I would create 2 documents, one with the first part an Roman numerals and one with the second part with the Arabic numerals.
Now you can create TOC with the preferred page numbers.When you are certain that you will not change anything in the documents create the TOCs. In the Roman select the TOC so it has a blue border line and one copy the TOC and open it in TextEdit.
Copy the TOC from TextEdit (it is now plain text and has lost its connection to the the in the document) and past it before the TOC in the Arabic page number document. Now you can also copy and paste the text from the Roman.. document. The other TOC will adjust its page numbers
You will probably need a Section breakBefore or after the main TOC so you can have the first part without page numbers. Familiarise your self with the Inspector palette > Layout and download the Pages User Guide and read about page numbering, layout sections and TOCs. I find it hard do give precise instructions. The Pages User Guide is downloadable from your Pages Help menu.

Page numbers in pages

Dear collegues. I have a 20 page document. I want to start numbering the pages but only on the third page and starting with the page number 24. Is there a way in pages to do that?
Thanks for your help.

Paul,
It sounds as though your third page is different from the first two in some way. The solution to your problem would be to Insert > Section Break at the bottom of the second page. On the third page, Insert the Page Number and use the Layout Inspector > Section Tab > Page Numbers > Start At: box to set the starting point for that page.

I'm having a devil of a time changing page numbers even though I'm following the instructions for doing so. Any tips?

I imported an already paginated text from Word into Pages to format it for a book. I don't wan the first few pages numbered, so I've been trying to begin page one at the beginning of chapter one. I've followed the instructions for changing page numbers, i.e., click next to page you want to change; in dialogue box click "start new header /footer; a new section is created; click Setup, click Section; in page numbering section, select "Start at" and enter a new starting number." In trying to do this often I can't get the dialogue box, or when I do, I get a new section that commences with a blank page. Or, the dialogue box that should allow me to change numbers never appears. Help!

Is this for the Mac or iOS?
You only have iOS 7.0.4 as atag.

Why isn't my portrait page numbering showing up on landscape pages after creating PDF from Word?

I have a lengthy Word document that has portrait and landscape oriented sections. The landscape sections have page numbering set up so that on screen it appears on the left, but in the printed book will have the page numbers in the same place as the portrait pages. For some reason when I create a PDF using the Adobe tab in Word and embed the fonts though, the portrait page numbers on my landscape pages do not show up. Does anyone know if there's a box or something I'm not checking?
I'm using Microsoft 2010. Let me know if any other details are needed!

Hi Liz,
Can you share the file with me at [email protected] so that I can have a look.

Feature Request: Page Numbers

I can zip through my long documents using the Navigator which shows me a small "reading glass" view and a page number. But I don't know what page number I want, because there are no page numbers shown anywhere in my document. I can't use the "reading glass" to find my correct page, because they all look the same when they are strictly text. I could find the correct page by page number, if I only knew it.
What I want is a page number to appear somewhere (maybe in the task bar?) when I am viewing my file. Naturally it would change as I scroll up and down. But I could see the page number for future reference, and then the Navigator would be more useful.
If I knew I wanted to find page 132, then I could use Navigator to find it. But I have no way of knowing that's the page I want without page numbers showing somewhere!
Hope to find this feature in an upcoming update...

Need Help With ePub Book Page Numbering

I'm not understanding how to get the page numbers set in sequential order for an ePub.
I've created a Book with 10 sections (all independent files).
But, as you can see in the attached image, the file numbers do not progress from one "section" to another. This is messing up the TOC and the ePub navigation.
What am I doing incorrectly?

Book and Page Numbering Options were set correctly to:
Continue from previous document
Automatically Update Page & Section Numbers
What I missed was setting Document Numbering Options to:
Start Section >> Auto Page Numbering
Document Chapter Numbering >> AutoChapter Numbering
Each of my ten Book documents were defaulting to Start Page Numbering at: 1 which was causing each document/section to begin at 1.

How to add cover sheet without affecting page numbering?

No replies yet, so perhaps I should change the question to "Can one add a new section break at the beginning of a document?"
Or "How do you apply a section break on a Master Page so that when the Master Page is added at the beginning of a document, it does not change the numbering of the pages that follow?"
Thanks very much for any help!
[ORIGINAL QUESTION: Is it possible to add a cover sheet to an InDesign document without affecting the existing page numbering? I have a series of chapters from a book that need to be posted individually and require a cover sheet. Each chapter begins on a recto page and the page numbering is set with a prefix (the chapter number) and page number, e.g., page 1.1. I can manage to add the cover sheet without the other pages shuffling, but the cover page always becomes page 1.1 and the text thus begins on page 1.2 (even though it's a recto page). Is there any way to do this without having to manually reset all the page numbering in the Numbering & Section Options window?
Thanks for any help you can give---many such documents to work on.... Also, never submitted a question before, so hope I've done this correctly! ---JCI]

There are really two things to consider here. First is that page numbering normally controls which side of the spine a page is on (and switching sides can cause all sorts of problems if you have master text frames). Second is preseving the existing numbering.
It's no problem to reset the numbering by starting a new section after you add the new page to the front of the file, but if this is a facing pages file you will want to add two pages to start so the rest of the doc doesn't switch sides, then start a new section and reset the start number (sorry, no way I know to do this other than manually). Now you can delete one of the pages in the first section and reset the number on the remaining new page to odd or even as appropriate and add your content.

How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing. I do not want the page numbers the software automatically places into my document.

How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing? The title page is blank, I can type in 1 on the 1st typed page, but the #1 automatically goes into the next page and will not change.

Click at bottom of the first page:
Menu > Insert > Section break
Click somewhere in the 2nd page (not the header/footer)
Inspector > Layout > Section > Page Numbers > Start at 1 > Configuration > uncheck use previous headers and footers
Click into the header or footer of the second page:
Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers…
If there is anything in the header or footer on the first page that you don't want just select it and delete it.
If you really wanted to manual place page numbers on each page you will have to use a section break between each and every page. I can't imagine that would be useful.

Problem in resetting the Page numbers

Hi,
I am using to print PO report using XML publisher.
The layout that is needed is
Header
---- It cointains page number x of y ,po number,po creation date,and other details.
Body
---- It cointains po lines and po headers data.
end body
After the body ends we need to print Service note in a seperate page.But this service note should not have header and the pages of the service note will not be included in total pages of the PO.
If the PO is 10 pages and service note 2 pages then the total page of PO should be 10.
This is for one PO.We have to print many number of POs in a single request.
Presently the problem is that for resetting the page numbers of service note I am using a section break after the end of body.What it does is it reset the page number.But the problem is first all the POs are displayed then its service note.But I need one PO and then its service note .Then the second PO and its service note.

I have used the following method to call the template based on IF condition as follows:
The way I expected the outcome is:
if the COPY_ORIGINAL variable's value is '(Copy)' then it shoud print once the template with a label '(Copy)' in it.
else
if the COPY_ORIGINAL variable's value is '' (empty) then it should print 4 times the template, with different labels as: 'Original' , 'Accounts Copy', 'FP Store Copy' and 'Gate Copy'
the way I used the xml tags is mentioned below:
<?if: COPY_ORIGINAL='(Copy)'?>
<?call:TC?>
<?end if?>
<?if: COPY_ORIGINAL=''?>
<?call:TC1?>
<?end if?>
<?template:TC1?>
<?for-each@section:xdoxslt:foreach_number($_XDOCTX,1,4,1)?>
<?if: position()=1?>Original<?end if?>
<?if: position()=2?>Accounts Copy<?end if?>
<?if: position()=3?>FP Store<?end if?>
<?if: position()=4?>Gate Copy<?end if?>
<?for-each:/SFFONT001/LIST_G_HEADER_ID?>
<?call:TC?>
<?end for-each?>
<?end for-each?>
<?end template?>
<?template:TC?>
<?ORDER_NUMBER?>
<?end template?>
In this case, it won't call the template TC1 and reset the page numbers, instead it prints the page numbers continuously.. (no resetting of page numbers)
why the following If statement:
<?if: COPY_ORIGINAL=''?>
<?call:TC1?>
<?end if?>
is not working for the statement:
<?for-each@section:xdoxslt:foreach_number($_XDOCTX,1,4,1)?>
Please update...
regards..,
