In InDesign, I can set the page numbering options to start at any number. Like this (starting at 5):
Please note that this is not the same as page markers as text in the document. I need to change it in the Pages panel.
My question is: How can I do this with ExtendScript? I have figured out how to read it from the active page:
app.activeWindow.activePage.name
But I want to change it, something like this:
i = 1;
for each page
app.activeWindow.activePage.name = i;
i++;
end
Is it possible?
Try this
app.activeDocument.sections[0].continueNumbering = false;
app.activeDocument.sections[0].pageNumberStart = 5;
and have a look at these links:
