Including the total number of pages

To include the total number of pages (as in page 1 of 12):

1. Type the word page and a space; then insert the page number as above.
2. Press the spacebar once, type the word of and add a space; then choose Insert > Fields > Page Count.

The Page Count field inserts the total number of pages in the document, as shown on the Statistics page of the document's Properties dialog box (File > Properties). If you restart page numbering anywhere in the document, then the total page count may not be what you want.
