Using automatic page numbering

To insert an automatic page number:

  1. Display a master page by choosing its name from the Display submenu (Page > Display).
  2. Create a text box where you want a page number to appear.
  3. Press Command+3/Ctrl+3. This enters the Current Page Number character <#>. Layout pages based on that master page will display the current page number in the location where you place the Current Page Number character.
  4. Select the Current Page Number character <#> and specify the desired character attributes.
