Note that even if a section is not enabled (so it will not be outputted), its restartPageNumber flag
is still taken into account for composing the page number sequences.
By default, each section has restartPageNumber = false when the first control script runs.
Tip
If you are looking to create a table of contents, add a template script that uses the pageRef()
function. For an example, see "Creating a table of contents" on page1048.
Examples
Restarting the page numbers several times
Assume that a template has four sections (of 1 page each) in the Print context and a Control
Script sets the page numbering as follows:
1. Section A (1 page) restartPageNumber = true
2. Section B (1 page) restartPageNumber = true
3. Section C (1 page) restartPageNumber = false
4. Section D (1 page) restartPageNumber = true
The code would look like this:
if (merge.context.type == ContextType.PRINT) {
merge.context.sections['Section A'].restartPageNumber = true;
merge.context.sections['Section B'].restartPageNumber = true;
merge.context.sections['Section C'].restartPageNumber = false;
merge.context.sections['Section D'].restartPageNumber = true;
}
The page numbering in the output will be:
1. Section A page 1
2. Section B page 1
3. Section C page 2
4. Section D page 1
