Hello together, can someone help me to create a page numbering like in the uploaded image, so far i managed it to

make the actual page 03 but i also want the total page 05, at the moment i can only make the total page 5

Thank you so much in advance

Ollly

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

What did you do to get the leading 0 on 03? As far as I know, neither the current page number nor the total page number support that. But if you managed it for the current page number, perhaps something similar would work for the total.

i changed the page number on the pages tab,

Actually, from that screenshot, you did that in the Section Manager: Window > Section Manager

Thanks for the added info.

And you're right; that doesn't apply to the total page counter.

How about separate text frames, e.g. one for "/0" the other for the "total page number"?

i wanted to automate it, because its my portfolio and depending on the company i send it, the portfolio will have different amount of pages, if i have 2 separate text fields it will work until page 9 and from page 10 on it doesnt work anymore
