Restart Page x of y for document sections

Avatar

Former Community Member

My document/form will be quite long, about 5 sections, 64 pages total.  Currently each section in Word is numbered per section pages, such as page 1 of 5, page 1 of 12, etc., depending on the number of pages.  But am converting the document to LiveCycle and am setting up master pages and assigning the pages of document to respective master page using the Place/On Page option. 

It is working the way I want for headers and footers, as each header will be different per section, but the page numbering is not working.  On the master pages, under pagination, I've set them to start at one, but that is not working. 

Before I get the whole document completed/set up incorrectly, could someone please point me in the direction of the correct way to achieve the restart at one?  And how to return number of pages within that master page group instead of overall document pages?

Thank you!

Found this link that is promising, but not sure where to put the code mentioned.  Have tried replacing the code that was on the # sign in the numbering field, but it's giving me a blank result for page number.   I've got all the master pages set up and it will be worth it to get this part right, but just don't know how.

Also have been trying to work with info from this link, http://forums.adobe.com/message/4093037, but same result - blank results.  Would appreciate any assistance on how to set this up, thanks so much.
