Can I create 2up page numbering in InDesign?

Report · Mar 23, 2018

I would like to set up 2 pages on one spread in InDesign each with its own page number.

So can I put the current page number AND the next page number on the same page in InDesign???

And then if I add additional pages, will the numbers continue?

Can I do it on the master page?

I determined if I set up a numbered list with "number 1" and then "number 2" on the same page in a text column, and then click the overset text and add it to the next page I can do it that way. But it's tedious and I have to do it manually.

Hi Clarissa,

should be doable.

Here a screenshot of my master.

Important note: The center of the second frame is on the odd page of right from the spine of the master!

And a screenshot of an actual spread in the document showing page 100 and 101:

Thanks so much.

Actually after seeing your screen shot, I determined that I can simply do facing pages and put the "insert special character" on each page and it added pages successfully with each number.

Had to turn them sideways, though!!

Thanks
