Hi Eric You can do this as follows:
1. Place a paragraph on the last page of the book. It doesn't have to contain anything, but if you wish it may. You can also set the colour to white. 2. Place a cross reference to the paragraph tag in the footer, and set the cross-reference format to $pagenum. Hope this helps.

I have been asked by our Quality dept. to use Page X of Y in my footers (the result of an audit). When I put in the Page Count variable, I get the page count of the individual file (the Y part of the page count footer), not of the whole book. So, file 1 has Page 1 of 2, file 2 has Page 3 of 16, etc. I need them to be Page 1 of 80, Page 3 of 80, etc. Is there a variable or some other method I'm not familiar with that will accomplish this? I've checked the Help file and did a quick Google search on page variables, but found nothing useful. I'm using Frame 6 on Win XP SP3. Thanks! ************************************************* Eric Isaacson Product Literature Manager Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, Inc. _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as rshuttleworth at avbasesystems.com.
