Continuous numbers on odd pages only

Hello all,

I have seen this question is already been asked in the past, but the answer was unclear to me, or it didn't work.

First of all: I have Adobe Acrobat Pro XI version 11.0.10

I need to print documents on both sides, but I want only one face of each page to be numbered, and the numbering must be continuous. If I do that through tools-->pages-->Edit page design-->Header & Footer-->Add head & Footer then go on Page Range Options and choose Subset-->Odd pages only, what I get is a numbering like so: 1-3-5... what I need instead is 1-2-3... but only on odd pages, so that each number corresponds to a sheet (printed on both sides).

I hope my request is clear enough, thanks to anyone that can help.

I don't believe it's possible using the built-in function, but you can do it using this tool I've developed:

Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat/Reader -- Advanced Add Header/Footer Text

One of the options I've added there is to insert the "page number being processed", which is exactly what you've described.
