Hi,
The hide page feature that's been added to the latest Indesign versions is great. Problem Im having is this isn't factoring in the page number change when exporting to a PDF. Am I missing something, is there a way for indesign to calculate this when exporting?
It's use in large documents with page numbers makes it a bit redundant as at some point I will have to delete pages in the file regardless when supplying to a client.
Thanks,
Tom
Hi Tom:
No, you aren't missing anything. This is a first release of the feature. Page numbers, footnote numbers, endnote numbers and auto-numbers don't update to reflect the missing pages. Yet.

There's a standing discussion on the Hide Spreads feature, in that it's fundamentally useful but a bit 'undercooked' in this release. Adding things like page numbering adjustment, page count adjustment, and better 'flagging' of hidden pages has been discussed.
