My document is made up of several smaller "sections" compiled into one large document. Each section has its own page-number prefix and is numbered 1 through whatever. They look like MD-23 or DS-58. This is great because it organizes each section separately.
The issue is that when you are looking at an individual section, the page numbering makes sense and works fine, but if you look at it as a whole document, it makes no sense. I would like to add a second page number, an absolute document page number, that is, the position of the page inside the entire document. So basically just a standard page number.
I would very much like not to manually add a text box to each page on hundreds of pages. I would prefer something I can place on the parent page to give the entire document page number. I've searched multiple forums for direction on this, but nothing fits my situation of wanting multiple page numbers on a page.
