Formatting footers

O

O Chacon

How can I change the format of the last page of a
document? My footer right now is "Continued
10", "Continued 11", etc. I want the footer of the last
page of the document to have just the page number.
Thanks.

You'll need a conditional field in the footer, something like this:

{ IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES } { PAGE } "Continued { PAGE }" }

Each pair of field delimiters (the things that look like braces but can't be
typed from the keyboard) must be inserted using Ctrl+F9, though you can use
the Insert Page Number and Insert Number of Pages buttons on the Header and
Footer toolbar to insert the PAGE and NUMPAGES fields.
