You only need to call merge.section.paginate() in a Post Pagination Script if the script has
added or removed content to such an extent that the page boundaries need to be renewed.
For an example see: "Creating a Table Of Contents" on page896.
Pagination
The Pagination object that is accessed via the section object (see "section" on page1400)
contains the total page count, sheet count and start/end page numbers for a single section.
These properties are read-only and are only available in Post Pagination Scripts (see "Post
Pagination Scripts" on page894).
For the total page and sheet count of all Print sections together use the merge object's
"Pagination" on page1412 (see also: "merge" below).
For information about where an element is located and the counts of pages and sheets in a
page bundle - a group of sections in which the page numbering continues - use "info()" on
page1399.
