ControlScript:Pagenumbering
ThistopicexplainshowtowriteaControlScriptthatchangesthepagenumberinginPrintsections.
NotethatwhenyouaddaControlScript,italreadycontainsascripttomakethepagenumberingcon-
tinueoverallPrintsections.
ForinformationaboutControlScriptsingeneral,see"ControlScripts"onpage398and"ControlScript
API"onpage815.Ifyoudon'tknowhowtowritescripts,see"Writingyourownscripts"onpage368.
How to change page numbering in a control script
AControlScriptcanmakethepagenumberingcontinueoverallPrintsectionsorletitrestartonasec-
tion.ThisisdonebysettingtherestartPageNumber fieldonasectiontotrueorfalse.
Forexample:merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections['Section
2'].restartPageNumber = true;.(Alsosee"section"onpage848and"ControlScriptAPI"on
page815.)
Pagenumberingstartswithpage1foreachsection.IfforasectionrestartPageNumberissetto
false,thatsectionwillstartwiththepagenumberfollowingthelastpageoftheprevioussection.
