Replaceable symbol ($p of $P) Issue

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi All, I have a problem with replacable symbol in pdf, I need to put at the footer for each secction te test PAGE: 5 of 50 for instance. For this I use this aproach below:

// Create a Footer Section of the document

Aspose.Pdf.Generator.HeaderFooter footer = new Aspose.Pdf.Generator.HeaderFooter(mainSection);

// set the Odd footer of the PDF file

mainSection.OddFooter = footer;

// set the Even footer of the PDF file

mainSection.EvenFooter = footer;

// Create a Text object

Aspose.Pdf.Generator.Text txt = new Aspose.Pdf.Generator.Text("Page: ($p of $P) ");

TextInfo txtFooterInfo = new Aspose.Pdf.Generator.TextInfo();

txtFooterInfo.Alignment = AlignmentType.Center;

txt.Margin = new MarginInfo();

txt.Margin.Bottom = 50F;

txt.TextInfo = txtFooterInfo;

// Add text to Header section of the Pdf file

footer.Paragraphs.Add(txt);

The problem is that only get the current page ($p) and aspose not replace $P parameter with the total of pages.

A little search I discover a Issue but the date of this is the year 2008 I bilive you already solve this, My Aspose version is: 7.4.

Could you give me some light on this?

Ok, This is solve if you use this format

"Page $p of $P "

But I dont't know if this is a Aspose issue.

Hi Diego,


We already have investigated this issue and in order to properly display the total page count using $P, there should be a blank space after $P so that its rendered properly. During our investigations, we could not find any suitable solution except for this workaround. We are sorry for this inconvenience.
