Hi Suri,
How about this commands
&SFSY-FORMPAGES&
Displays the total number of pages for the currently processed form. This allows you to include texts such as'Page x of y' into your output.
&SFSY-JOBPAGES&
Contains the total page number of all forms in the currently processed print request.

Smartform page numbering

Hi experts,
I am displaying notification numbers in the ALV format. when the user selects few of the notification numbers and click on display button it should display the notification details using smartform.
I have to trigger a new page for every notification number.
I had problem in numbering the smartform pages.
For example if the user selects 3 notification numbers say 1st one takes 3 pages, second one takes one page and third one takes 2 pages then i have number the pages as below.
1st notif:1of 3,2 of 3,3 of 3.
2nd notif:1 of 1.
3rd notif:1 of 2,2 of 2.
Please give me some suggestion.
Thank you.

Bharat Kalagara.

hi ,
in the driver program based on on a check on notification number call smartform , and now in smartform where u are printing page number make that window as a final window , this will help in calculating total no of pages now create a text element and write &sfsy-page(3cz)& of &sfsy-formpages(3cz)&.
hope this helps you !!!

How can I fix my page numbering problem?

I am creating a catalog in InDesign. Master pages were set up so the left and right pages had the page numbers in the lower outside corners.
Today I moved some pages around, and as a result the left side pages are now right side, and vice versa.
The problem I am facing is that on some of the pages, the page number is now in the inside corner, and on some of the pages, the page numbers are on both the inside and outside corners. The numbering is correct, but the positions are wrong.
I tried:
1. Overwriting all master page items for the page, then trying to delete or move the page number, but there is a faint yellow box around the number and it cannot be deleted or removed.
2. Applying the correct master page to the page I am trying to fix; this works in some cases, but in others it just places the new text boxes on top of the old ones.
Any help would be appreciated! I am using CS6 on a Mac. My master pages include a text box at the top, a blank box to show the page with bleed, and a page number indicator.

After I resist the temptation to ask why you're transcoding to ProRes in mid-stream, all I can come up with is:
Need more info on the error circumstances
OR
You could batch the source clips in Compressor and start over
OR
Try smaller batches
OR
Trash your prefs, repair permissions, and try again

Section/Page numbers problems

I have a document which I want the page numbering to start on the second page, ie. there is a title page which has no number, and then the second page has number one.
Reading through other posts about this, I have found that I have to add a section break in order to make this work, between the title page (1) and the real first page (2). But the problem is whenever I add a section break, it creates an entire blank page for the section break, so I end up with title page, blank page, real first page. Even if I have enough space, etc... every time I create a new section I get a blank page which I cannot type on or use, without deleting the section break and putting me back to square one.
Does a section break always do this (add a new blank unuseable page)?
Please, what can I do?
(required end of post rant: I switched from MsWord thinking pages would be so much more simple... but really, WHAT THE....? Just have it be a simple thing somewhere that allows the page (or section) to start at "0")

My guess is that an object is embedded in your title page which fools the tool cuttting the document in pages because on my machine, it works flawlessly.
You may activate the "Show Invisibles" function which may help to find if there is an odd character embedded.

NO, here it doesn't

It would not solve the problem because it would display the number 0 on the first page which is not what you want.
It would not solve the problem for those wanting a numbering starting on page 3 (or on page 4 …)

Help!!!! Urgent Framemaker page numbering problem

Hi there,
I have to make a last minute update to this old project that we have in Framemaker. I've never really used it before so I'm clueless!!
Problem is I have a book, it consists of several chapters, each of which seems to have a .fm extension.
I need to build a pdf and for the page numbers in it to flow from chapter to chapter. Problem I'm having right now is that chapter 1 ends on page 10 and chapter 2 begins on page 13!
This wouldn't be so bad if it even inserted a couple of blank pages in the pdf, but it doesn't so the number goes out of synch!
In the main page area where it lists all the .fm files, I've right-clicked on chapter 2, selected Numbering and selected Continue Numbering from Previous File in Book, then pressed Set. This doesn't make a different though!!
Also chapter 2 ends on page 18 and chapter 3 begins on page 21 so something isn't right.
I need to get this document finished today, if anybody could pls help it would be really really appreciated!

OK, first the theory: The book file is critical. It is a container that holds and controls the formatting of the chapter files.
If you open the component files outside the book, they'll contain page number that may be inaccurate because you're working outside the book environment.
So first, confirm the problem: In the book file, click the update icon. You'll have a dialog bos that asks if you want to regenerate the TOC and any other generated files. Click yes.
THEN, open the chapter file(s) to check the page numbering. I suspect that either the chapters have an intervening into page OR they have pagination set to open on a right side page and a blank page or two is being generated to force that -- and either problem can make the numbering appear as you've described it.
Check back in at this point and let us know what it looks like....
Cheers,
Art

Word to PDF - Page Numbering Problems

When I use the combine files tool in Acrobat 8 for PDFing word documents instead of the page numbering being 1/3, 2/3, 3/3, it comes out as 1/1, 2/2, 3/3. I've tried looking at all the settings and cant find a logical reason for this. It also happens when I print to PDF while in Word.
Has anyone else experienced this same problem?

Here are a couple links that should help.

Smartforms -Page Skipping Problem in Continue Sheet Printing.....

Hi Gurus,
I face problem with multiple page printing in dot matrix printer for purchase order printing.
Here are the details about my requirement
Our client Purchase order pre-printed Paper size Width 303 mm Height 203 mm and continued sheet. I have created a z layout zpoprint for the above size and assigned it in smarforms and select DINA4 transverse in printer. Whenever we printing 2nd page it starts printing after 5 cm. My friends asked me to create a customized page format in server properties in printer. Is there any other way to overcome this issue? Anybody face this problem kindly reply to me.

SP. Manavalan

Hi
Though you can double check the page layouts of both pages of your smartform, also keep in consideration that using a dot matrix printer to get the output of smartforms will have some impact of the positioning of the print as dot matrix printers are mechanical in nature(wheels are moving!).
Whereas, in laser printers, the whole data is taken, formatted and then sent to print.

Smartforms - page protection problem

Hi,
I have made an invoice form with smartforms. To protect the positions of page breakes, I have made all position nodes in one folder note and set the page protection flag for that folder. Because in tables the page protection option is not working, I have made it all with paragraphs...
This is my problem now:
If the form has more than one page, I have to show the sum of all positions of the first page on the bottom of the page and one the top of the next page. Therefore I have calculated the sum inside the loop of the positions (at the end of the loop).
This is normaly working... But if I have two pages and only ONE position does not fit on the first page, the calculated sum contains the sum of ALL positions, although the last position is shown on the next page!
Any ideas, how I can only calculate the positions that fit on one page FOR REAL?
Thank You very much!
Cheers Arne

Hi,
I encountered a similar problem as ur doing.In dat scenario what i did was that I created a Loop instead of a table and secondly based on the page size please create a style with proper an appropriate tab and use this through out while displaying the line items.
Using a tab will ensure equal spacing everywhere and the data will not overflow from any line and where ur writing a variable place an addition (C) at the end of that variables between the &. This also ensures that the data doesnt overflow and confines to the space.
Hope this will help.

Smartforms : page count problem

Hi everyone,
I am using the system variable SFSY-FORMPAGES and when the total pages is above 9, I get a star "*" instead of the real number of pages.
Can someone help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi David,
maybe there isn't enough space for the text in the field
Try to use SFSY-FORMPAGES(C) (condense spaces) or try to give more space to the text.
Let me know.
Best regards,
Manuel
PS: please remember to close the thread and to reward points when your problem is solved. Thank you

Customer Statement - Page Numbers

Has anyone been able to solve the page numbering problem on the statement report?
For example: If you have page numbers visible, the report runs each page 1,2,3,4 etc, where we need to have 1st customer page 1, 2nd customer page 1 and page 2, 3rd customer page 1 etc.

Hi,
In version 2005 there is no solution for this and unfortunately there is no workaround either as I know.

Page numbering wrong when exporting to pdf

I have a 340-page book, broken into about 40 chapters. The chapters are set as the start of a section, and there are no section changes inside the chapters. Theoretically, the pages should number consecutively throughout the book -- and they do, in InDesign 5.5. But when I export to pdf, they get all screwed up.
For instance, the page numbers in Chapter 6 start correctly at #27, but the following pages are numbered like this: 28, 29, 28, 29, 28, 29, 30. The last page number should be 35, not 30.
This happens sporadically throughout the book.
I've checked to be sure each chapter has only one section, and that page numbering is set consecutively. In ID, all the page numbers are in order. But once they get exported to pdf, they go crazy.
Thanks............

Peter: My reply above to John kind of overlaps this reply, so it might be well for you to read that, too. You'll find there a whole list of problems I had with CS4; going back is not the answer.
I agree that one problem is that I don't have extensive experience with ID. But I'm living on an extremely limited income, and I hoped the Creative Suite would help alleviate that. I has done that; it has also added a great deal of frustration. I don't have a huge IT budget to draw from. The original outlay for CS4 was an extreme reach for me, and I didn't really have the funds for an upgrade. How I would love to spend a few thousand dollars to fly to Pittsburgh or New York and spend a week or so immersed in an Adobe workshop! Unfortunately, I live on a small town without such resources. I have watched as many videos as I could find, and I have gone through several step-by-step books. But you're right: hands-on experience is necessary, and I'm scrambling to learn as much as I can as quickly as I can.
I would imagine you're right, too, when you say that bugs are inevitable in a complex program. What I have trouble understanding is why they aren't fixed, especially considering the price of the program. The problem with internal hyperlinks not working in epubs has been a known issue for some time, and according to one Adobe expert's post, the developers' attitude has been more or less, "Yep, that's a problem, all right." But it hasn't been fixed.
Not only am I working on a limited budget, but I have made promises to clients I haven't been able to keep. It's frustrating when clients are screaming, "Where's my book?" and I'm fighting with "known ID issues." One novel was supposed to have been published in early October. I was all ready to finalize it when I noticed the page numbering problem. I feel I have spent far too much time chasing ID program bugs -- and I don't get paid for posting requests for help in the forums.
In reference to the internal hyperlink problem, I have attempted to "crack open the epub and do some fixing." If that would work, I would have no problem; I know HTML. But after I "rezipped" the files, I couldn't read the result in any epub reader. I'd like to know how Ms. Castro puts its back together after cracking it open. Perhaps it can be done with a Mac; as far as I know, it can't be done on a PC without oXygen, yet another expensive program I can't afford. (However, after going to her website, I have decided I need to buy her book. Thanks for that tip!)
I do appreciate your help, and I apologize for getting so impatient. I hope you and the other moderators will be patient with me. I'm working hard to learn as fast and as much as I can and sometimes the frustration gets overwhelming.

Distiller 8 stripping logical page numbering

A client has set up a repurposing workflow that requires us to save PDFs as Postscript, and then run new Distiller settings on the Postscript file.
When we run the process in Acrobat & Distiller 8, the logical page numbering is stripped (that is, if the first page of the original page showed as Page 19 (1 of 26), after processing it reverts to Page 1 (1 of 26)).
The client says this does not happen in Acrobat/Distiller 7, and we have confirmed this. Processing the files in Acrobat/Distiller 7 is not a very useful option for us, as most of our workstations have moved to Leopard, and therefore cannot distill files reliably using Distiller 7. We are working around the problem by manually resetting the logical page numbering in the PDFs after processing--an extra step.
Here's my question: has anyone else experienced this behavior? Any idea why the process would strip the page numbering in version 8, but not in version 7? If anyone has experienced this, have you found a setting that prevents the problem in version 8?
Thanks very much.

Jon,
Thanks for your reply. It's not a workflow we would have designed; the client insists upon it, however, and it does seem to get them what they want, except for the page numbering problem.
Upon testing the setting you suggest, the "Preserve Document Info from DSC" option appears *not* to preserve logical page numbering. It preserves other information--title, creation date, and time--but not the logical page numbers. It was a good suggestion, though. Perhaps that parameter was left out when the code was rewritten for Acrobat/Distiller 8...
Yours,
David

Problem with opening/saving files in Pages/Numbers/Keynote

Hello, First of all: sorry for my bad english.
I had this problem already several months ago and already contact with the Apple hotline.
The only thing that was said then and was helped "new user account" - well done.
But:
I can not do this every 3 months.
The problem: I can not open a Pages / Numbers / Keynote files anymore.
From iCloud / iCloud Drive it goes, locally stored open still.
I'll get the error: "File can not be opened."
Newly created files I can not save - no matter which hard disk - it will show "missing access rights"
Of course, I've already deleted preferences, reset NV-RAM and repaired permissions (access rights) - via terminal "reset password" also.
Anyone here knows this problem and knows a solution?
Thanks in advance.

It occurred in connection with my scripture library „Font Explorer X Pro“.

ID CS5 - problem with 2 page numbers in the same page

Until InDesign CS3 I could put 2 page numbers in one page, either in document pages or in master pages, using 2 linked text frames, one in each of the pages I wanted to see the numbers. And this worked fine!
In CS4, this stopped working in master pages. I had to override the text frames from master pages (ctrl/cmd + shift click on the text frames) to get this working, and I had to this in ALL document pages.
I was hoping this problem was solved in CS5 but... the problem got worst!!! Now, not only I have to override the text frames, but I have to erase the markers and put them there again. Which means I have to put page markers individually in ALL pages.
I wonder if there is a new way to do this? Does any one have the answer?...
If not... I really really hope someone from Adobe reads this forum and try to solve the problem, because this is a great inconvenience...
Thanks for any help

Hi, Jongware,
It is a bug since CS4, agravated in CS5, because until CS3 it worked very well.
In fact, it worked through out a lot of pages. I think this was not created only to pages side-by-side but in fact to those articles that continued several pages ahead. So, in a magazine, when one has to break an article and continue this article in other page, one could (and still can) put a text frame in the of the first part of the article and type "Continue on [next page marker]". Then link this text frame with a new text frame on the page where the article continues, (on top of 2nd part of the article) and type "Continued from [previous page marker]".
This situation – where text frames are in the document pages – still works fine.
The problem is when this is a constant and you want to put it in master pages, and now it simply does't work. I mean, when every odd or even pages have both numbers. For me, it's a major problem, because several of my clients just love this!
Is anyone of Adobe reading this? Are you going to help us and fix this problem, please?...

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..,
