Page X of Y information can be placed in an RTF file using FOOTNOTE or TITLE statements with in-line commands:

footnote j=r "^{pageof}";
footnote2 j=r "^{thispage} of ^{lastpage}";

When opened in Microsoft Word, the page X of Y information might display incorrectly. The problem shows itself differently depending on the version of Microsoft Word used to open the RTF file. It might show as "3 of 1", "2 of 1", etc. or as "6 of 1", "6 of 2".

Note that a printout of the file will have the correct page X of Y values. To resolve the problem when viewing the file, change the view from Normal to Print Layout, then back to Normal (Office 2000 and 2003).
