Advanced Page Numbering and Stamping
Advanced page numbering allows you to add custom numbering and stamps to sections of a job, such as a range of pages or specific chapters.
You can specify different styles for different sections of your document, for instance, roman numerals for front matter and appendices, and Arabic numerals for the body of the document. Or you can designate pages that have no page number printed, but are included in the counts.
Some possible uses of the advanced page numbering feature are described in the following examples:
- In a five-page job where each page is counted, the pages are numbered (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
- In a five-page job where each page is counted and the starting number is 10, the pages are numbered (10, 11, 12, 13, 14).
- In a five-page job where each page is counted and the increment value is 2, the pages are numbered (1, 3, 5, 7, 9).
- In a five-page job where only the last page is counted, the pages are numbered (x, x, x, x, 1) where "x" indicates a page with no number printed on it.
- In a five-page job where the first two pages are skipped, the pages are numbered (x, x, 3, 4, 5) where "x" indicates a page with no number printed on it.
- In a ten-page job set up as chapters, with two pages in each chapter (five total chapters), the pages are numbered ([1, 2], [1, 2], [1, 2], [1, 2], [1, 2]) where [] shows each chapter.
- In a NCR multi-part pad, all the pages in one set are numbered the same (1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3), where a set consists of three parts.
