How to format page numbers with blank in MS Word 2003?

[BTS]

How can the page number be formated so that "/(y blank)" appears with the
page number at the end of a section when there are odd number of pages in a
mirrored/book format?
For example: 19/(20 blank), 1-3/(1-4 blank), a/(b blank)

This set of field codes could work if you're restarting numbering in every
section.

{ Page }{ IF { Page } = { SectionPages } "/({ = { Page } + 1 } blank)" "" }
