Hello,

 

I have a CSV file and one column is page number. For example page 2, 6, 7, 9.

How can i do this by data merge?

Pure DataMerge, you can't. You need Scripting.

You could probably just put a set of linked text frames where you want your page numbers on the Parent pages, then just place your column of numbers saved as an ordinary text file. Create a paragraph style for the numbers that has a Keep Option set to start on next page.
