Hi Ilana This field code will work so long as you know how many pages there are before your content page numbering starts. The example below subtracts 1 from the total number of pages in your document. Page { PAGE } of { = ( -1 ) + { NUMPAGES } } If you'd like me to send you the word doc with the enclosed fields in it, so that you can cut and paste it, send me an email direct.
