Hello,

It seems that since I installed the 8.0.1 updater the datatype of the cfdocument scope variables (eg totalpagecount and currentpagenumber) has been changed. Before the update the datatype was numeric, but now it seems unknown. This means I can't use mathematical expressions to these variables. Is this a new bug in CF 8.0.1 or....??

    I'm having the same issue with 8.01... Did you find a way around this?

    I have done some tests and it seems that the variables are replaced by {currentpagenumber} and {totalpagecount} and I think these variables are filled in by the pdf reader. I think we need some pdf programming guide to find out how to manipulate these variables.

    I have no clue why Adobe decided to change this behaviour in CF 8.0.1.
