Give a number page to a template

I use a trick: I never spawn/add one page somewhere in a document: first I delete all pages and I re-spawn all pages in their final order, starting by the end. This is usefull for small documents, less than 50 pages, since you never have to manage a relative pages order.

the calculateNow() method doesn't trigger fast enough

Add this script at the beginning of the script:

this.calculate = false;

And add this one at the end :

this.calculate = true;

this.calculateNow();

Bonjour.

Une réponse claire et en français se trouve ici : https://abracadabrapdf.net/forum/index.php/topic,3224.msg18951.html#msg18951

Enjoy.

Also, I think the switch statement is not necessary.  You could use those abreviations directly as export values right from your dropdown menu.

Add a field at the bottom of each pages and each template.

Put this in the calulate script:

event.value = "Page "+this.pageNum+" / "+this.numPages

by the way, you do not have to put your alert inside a variable to trigger it ;o)

//pop up for the user

var message = app.alert("Vous avez sélectionné une qualification d'instructeur \n\n"+"La page concernant la qualification vient d'apparaître à la fin du document",1)

Add text fields for the page numbers to the templates.
