Hi Team,

I have the requirement where I want the page no. in synchronous. Actually, I am using the assembler service to assemble the multiple pdf's. But when generating the resulting pdf its giving the page no. on each pdf specific. for ex. If I assembling 3 pdf,
pdf 1 with page 5

pdf 2 with page 6

pdf 3 with page 10 
then resultant pdf its giving 

page 1 of 5  ... so on n of m ... for first pdf pages

page 1 of 5  ... so on n of m ... for second pages pdf

page 1 of 10 ... so on n of m ... for third pages pdf

 

But I want total of 5+6+10 =21

like page 1 of 21, page 2 of 21 like that

 

any idea how that i can achieve it

I believe you can try the below code:

<Page pageNumber="1"> "Your DDX logic" </Page>

Thanks

Hello @amreen1 

 

Can you please add below string in your DDX after PDF source tag and check if the numbers are correct?

<PageNumbering start="1" format="%d" style="arabic"/>

 

PageNumbering defines the starting page number and format.
