Operation with Page Count building block

New Here ,
Jul 24, 2013 Jul 24, 2013

Actually I use the FM 9, and I need to do a operation using the current page or last page building block to add 1 to the last page (master page).

Resuming, my doc has 11 pages and I need add in the last page the "PAGE 11/12 (Blank)", but the page 12 doesn't exist.

I tried many ways to do it, but i couldn't find a way.

Can anybody suggest a way to create this variable (<#currentpage>+1 or <#lastpage>+1)?

Does FM (up through 9) support evaluated math expressions in anything but autonumbering? I'm willing to be mistaken, but I don't think so.

A way to do this is to force the existence of that last page, typically by:

Format > Page Layout > Pagination

Before Saving & Printing: [ Make Page Count Even ]

Or create some invisible content with a unique paragraph format, and use Master Page mapping to tie it to a final page layout.
