Survey for people using page numbering

We're doing a study on page numbering in InDesign. If you've recently dealt with a page numbering issue in InDesign, please take a few moments to fill out a brief survey.
I'll be contacting some of the review participants for a follow-up usability test.
Thanks.

Just wanted to chime in on the no-problems-here bandwagon.
I *think* that most of the people who complain about limited options have no experience in creating books, nor, it seems, in reading books -- f'r instance, they never noticed odd pages go on the right and even ones on the left. They never noticed books hardly ever start at page 2. They don't understand roman numbered front matter should also has an even number of pages. They don't think it's weird to have only right hand pages numbered.
Within those limitations, I can make ID document and book numbering jump through hoops. As long as they're circular hoops, that is. (And who'd ever heard of rectangular hoops? Or triangular?)
(PS. I get asked rather frequently if I can remove that annoying blank last page, right after the one that says '127'. It really is hard to explain -- not to mention three blanks after a last page 125.)

  • In iPhoto '11 I cannot change the book settings. For example, adding page numbers. There is no "option" button as is suggested by the help item.

    In iPhoto '11 I cannot change the book settings. For example, adding page numbers. There is no "option" button as is suggested by the help item. How can I change to book settings?

    The "options" button should appear at the bottom of the iPhoto window, when you view your book, then the Book Settings Button should be available and you can activate page numbers.
    But remember, that the settings available will depend on the Book Theme you selected. The above shows the settings for one of the "Travel" themes. In a Picture Book Theme, e.g. you cannot add page numbers.
    What theme and book size are you using?

  • Writing the filename as the prefix for bates or page numbering during batch process.  PRO 9

    While batch processing in Acrobat PRO 9 I am trying to insert the file name as the prefix automaticily either for page numbering or bates labeling.
    Not very good with javascript.  Any one have any ideas?
    Everyone is always asking to have the filename as the prefix and it starts to wear on you after 1000 exhibits.

    Don't know what script you're using, but this command will return the document's file name:
    this.documentFileName
    and this one will return the full path:
    this.path

  • How do I use page numbering and a text block in a footer in Word with the Report Generation Toolkit?

    I am creating a Word document with the Report Generation Toolkit, and LabVIEW 8.2.1. In the report I am using a template that has page numbering enabled in the center. When I try to add a text block to the left side footer, it eliminates the page numbering and adds my text on the left side. I found "Set Report Footer Text" and "Word Set Page Numbering" vi's that may be the clue to this. When I use these two vi's I either get Page 1 of 456789-001 on the left side, or if I reverse the order I get only 456789-001(text) in the left side with nothing in the center. What I would like to achieve is 456789-001(text) on the left footer, and Page 1 of 2 in the center. Is this possible and if it is, then how can I do it?

    Hi SciManStev,
    I have attached a vi where you can see how they can be made to work together. You have to design it such that one follows the other. If you don't design it that way, it results in a race condition and only one of them get executed.
    Good Luck!

  • Can documents written in Pages 2011 be read by people using Pages 2009?

    When I send documents written in Pages 2011 to friends using Pages 2009, they say they can't open them. If I have to convert everything I send to .doc, even things I send to known Mac users, then I might as well just give up and write in Word for Mac. Is there something they can do so that they can read my Pages documents?
    Thanks.

    There is no 2011 version of Pages, there are updates posted over the last 2 years, so my guess is that you friend’s Pages has not updated or is older than 2009. In the former case, should update. In the latter, you should save a version for an older version of Pages 2008: when saving, click Advanced, then choose the older version.

  • Use page numbers starting with 1 on the second page

    I have a document in Pages 09 that I need to have a title page. This page should have no page number so the numbers start on page 2. I have managed to get rid of the page number on the first page, but Pages keeps starting the numbers from 2 on the second page. I tried to set "Start at:" to 1, but that did have no effect. Is there any solution?

    From Vallauris I can't guess what but clearly, you forgot something !

  • Question for people using Sitraka's PerformaSure

    Anyone out there using this product on Weblogic?

    To be more accurate, the dock shows when applications are running with a little spotlight/blue dot (as of Leopard).
    You can also use Expose' to force all the application windows to show up temporarily (if they're not minimized).
    In general, you find that there are more UI shortcuts in OSX than there are in XP/Vista. And there's just as many keyboard shortcuts they're just different (very different in some cases).

  • Hi I have a customer who wants to know if Win XP will be a supported platform for iAS 7.0, if not what will be iPlanet official line for people using iAS 7.0 on Xp.

     

    All information about iAS 7.0 still requires a non-disclosure agreement. So, there isn't an "official line" yet. (iAS 7.0 hasn't even been formally announced yet.)
    If you or your client can contact your local sales team and execute an NDA you should be able to find out the planned platform support.

  • What is correct way to make a PDF reader, read the page numbering? (for accesibility in indesign 5.5

    What I have to do to make the reader read pdfs page numbering is in the page layout in InDesign CS5.5?
    I read that unlinking the numbering of the page layout and then including it in panel articles with the other elements. Is it true?
    Is this the way?
    thanks

    But page numbers do defenitively not belong to the text structure, neither do running headers and footers. As far as I understand these items are disturbing when reading pages.
    I am not blind and neither peronally I don't know any. But I suppose there are other means as reading marks for them as page numbers.

  • Pages/Numbers 4.3 documents won't show Quick Look in Finder anymore?

    After being dissatisfied with the features and presentation of Pages and Numbers 5.0, I removed both apps from my Mac Mini—running Mavericks—and went back to using Pages/Numbers 4.3. However, I noticed that Finder no longer provided a Quick Look of either type of document (it just shows the generic Pages/Numbers 4.3 icon instead of content), even though they will open without a problem in the 4.3 apps. A few days later, I decided to downgrade to Mountain Lion—due to Mavericks performance issues—figuring it would fix the Quick Look issue, but it still persists. All other documents—images, video, PDFS, etc. Quick Look just fine.
    Any suggestions on how to get back Quick Look for my Pages/Numbers documents?

    It sounds like they are not Pages '09 files, they are files you have saved in Pages 5.2.
    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • 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...

  • Page numbers from placed indd file not printing

    I've created a saddle-stitch booklet 1up in InDesign CS4. I've got auto page numbers on the master page, but when I place it in another InDesign document 2up for proofing, the page numbers are visible, but don't output either to an exported PDF or a PostScript file printed to be Distilled. Please advise.

    It's a bug. Anything on the master page of a placed INDD file just

  • How do you automate the point size of page numbers in a generated index?

    In Framemaker 10 I have a generated index for a book. The indexed items are in point size 10 but the generated page numbers come out in 12 pt.
    Can I automate the page number size to be 10 pt?
    I have tried defining a character tag IndexPage Numbers and entered the following on the index Reference page:
    Level1IX
    <IndexPageNumbers><$pagenum>
    Level2IX
    <IndexPageNumbers><$pagenum>
    but this does produce the desired point size.
    Thanks

    Error,
    I was just generating an index today and had this weird behavior. The level1IX, level2IX, and level3IX entries formatted as expected (TNR, 11pt, plain) but the markers and page numbers displayed as 24pt, bold, Arial which matched the IndexIX format. What is that format for anyway? My user guide does not mention its purpose.
    I looked at the reference page and there was a paragraph formatted as IndexIX with this content:
    <$pagenum>
    It was 24pt, arial, bold, and centered.
    Another manual had an index that formatted properly last week but it too had the above <$pagenum> tag. So it's confusing as to the different behavior.
    I reformatted the <$pagenum>/IndexIX paragraph to TNR, 11pt, plain (in the index file), regenerated the index, and now the page number formatting matches the entry formatting.
    Again, is IndexIX the format for the index page numbers only and why does Frame insert <$pagenum> in the Index spec. on the reference page?
    Yours,
    Michael F.

  • 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.
