Page numbering in master pages

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have an adobe form in which i have to create 2 master pages.

1st master page contains the content for the body.

2nd master page contains special conditions and Annexure.

Example scenario: First master page contains 33 pages or could increase to more number of pages depending upon the input conditions. Second master page always contains 15 pages. I need to have page numbering in such a way, that when i execute my form, the output will contain pages from both the master pages in one rendered PDF and the numbering should be 1 of 33 ( or more depending upon the pages included in first master page) and then when the next master page starts the numbering should restart as 1 of 15.

But in my case when i see the out put, (lets say first master page has 33 pages and second has 15 pages, so in total 48 pages), the page numbering comes as 1 of 48 and continues till end. Can i have the numbering in this way

1 of 33 and then

1 of 15  in that single document.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Nitin.

Hi Nitin,

In next mater page you will have to again instantiate the page sequence.

you can use this script in ready event

xfa.layout.page(this) = 1.

The corresponding content pages will automatically follow this series.

Hope this helps

Hi Sandeep,

Thanks for reply, but this scenario i already have tried, its making all the body pages related to second master page as Page 1 only. Not incrementing the page number.

Any other suggestions????

Hi Nitin,

Then you have to increment in all the subsequent pages of second master page.

xfa.layout.page(this) = xfa.layout.page(this) + 1. Like this

This is not the exact syntax but the way will be similar

Hope this helps.
