page numbering

[crystaln15043260]

I have checked the earlier answers on the forum and followed instructions re add new header and footer and choose 1 of n.It does not seem to work. Pleas help me add page numbering.

Can anyone help me figure out how to add page numbering in  Acrobat X Pro?  I need to be able to add page numbering like 1 of 50 or page 1 of 50 or something similar.  I have 97 pages.

Thanks in advance!

So what were the results when you tried to do it like that?

[crystaln15043260]

What does? Please be more specific...

I open Header and Footer and insert page number. I chose page number format, "1 of n" . When I click Ok, the number shows as 1 and not 1 of 97.

You have to add the text you want to see around the actual page number. In your case, you should have something like this in your header/footer field:

Page <<1>> of 97

[crystaln15043260]

Adding Page <<1>> of 97 in the header field made every page have "Page <<1>> of 97". It did not change to 2 of 97,etc.

It needs to be "<<1 of n>>"...

Thanks! This is what I did initially. Maybe my version of Acrobat has got corrupted. I need to reinstall.

The output of "1 of 111" is correct. Your document has 111 pages.
