Jasmine,
The easiest way I found was to insert the <$lastpagenum> variable in the very last page of my book, and cross-reference it for all the other chapters.
It worked just fine.

Subject: Page Numbering Format (# of ##) in an FM Book

Hello Framers,



I need to setup page numbering formatted as "Page # of ##" in a book with several files. The Page Count variable (building block <$lastpagenum>), pulls the last page number of the current file, not the last page number in the book. So, it's correct in the last file of the book, but not the others.



Is there any way to set up a variable that will read the last page number in the book? Or, is there another way to accomplish this without setting it manually after I generate the final book? 



TIA!
