Stop numbering in booklet format - last page to be back cover

D

Deacon

I have a document that is in booklet format. I would like the last page to
be the back cover of the handbook - with no page number at the bottom. Is
there a quick way to stop numbering or erase to clear the final page while
still including some text? Thank you

There are two ways to do this:

1. You can use a conditional field: { IF { PAGE } < { NUMPAGES } { PAGE } }
will insert a page number on every page but the last. If you have
header/footer text other than the page number, then you can paste the whole
thing (including the PAGE field) into the IF field:

{ IF { PAGE } < { NUMPAGES } "Text of the header/footer" }

2. The traditional way is to insert a section break between the last and
next-to-last page, unlink the header/footer in the new section from that in
the previous section, and delete the page number (or other header/footer
text) in that section.
