reset page number while merging multiple FR3 files

kccheng

hello,
how can I reset the TOTAL page number for the second FR3 file in code?
in the generated PDF file, the second report(report.fr3)'s page number starts from 1, but the total page number is including the page from invoice.fr3.

frxReport.LoadFromFile('invoice.fr3');
frxReport.PrepareReport(true);
frxReport.LoadFromFile('report.fr3');
frxReport.PrepareReport(false);
MainDM.frxPDFExport1.FileName:=Savedialog1.FileName;
frxReport.Export(MainDM.frxPDFExport1);

thanks

Just to be clear, are you asking for each sub-report to be numbered independently, or do you want the numbering to be "seamless"?

For example, say Invoice is one page, and Report is three pages, do you want the four pages in the PDF numbered:

A/ 1 of 1; 1 of 3; 2 of 3; 3 of 3?
B/ 1 of 4; 2 of 4; 3 of 4; 4 of 4?
C/ another scheme?

We went on a journey last year with "seamless" numbering which you can find discussed at:

You might be able to use a similar approach...

to be numbered independently.
Say i have a invoice.fr3, with only 1 page.
and followed by report.fr3, with 3 pages
I want the numbers are

Page 1 of 1
Page 1 of 3
Page 2 of 3
Page 3 of 3

Was this ever resolved or did you find a way to do this? I'm in the same spot. We will print out multiple reports for different customers and it will number them 1-99 (for example) across all reports. It doesn't make sense that the final report starts on page 97 (again, for example) when it should be numbered 1-3.

ALSO, have you found a way to label each report # OF # as in your example above? It's nice to know if we're missing any pages at the end of each report.
