with the master page "insert current page number" error when you export the book

Using InDesign CS for Windows 5.5

Recently updated for InDesign CS (very old one from 2003). I save a copy of all my old files version and kept the old installed ID just in case (after reading all the horror stories on here).

In my old version of ID, I created a book consisting of some 70 documents. Some of these documents are a single page, while others have multiple pages. In the multiple documents page, I used the "insert... current page number" character (or whatever the command was in the old version) on a page master and formatted as follows, for example: Page 1 of 17, Page 2 of 17, Page 3 of 17, etc. When I exported my book in pdf format, it worked fine. (I is not have to / want page numbers consecutive throughout the book, only in individual documents.) By that I mean my whole book is about 280 pages, but not all of these 280 pages are numbered, only groups of pages in multi-page documents. It is not read page 1-280).

Am my upgrade to 5.5 a few months ago added some documents in the book, and (if I remember correctly) when I saved the book he asked to convert each document version to the new version, I said OK. When I exported the book in pdf format, some documents that are more than 2 pages are now counted wrong; the numbers are now like this: Page 1 of 17, Page 2 of 17, Page 2 of 17 (supposed to be page 3), Page 2 of 17 (supposed to be page 4), etc. Each page, but page 1 is now page 2 of that either.

If I open the individual document and export it to PDF, the page numbers work very well. It is only when the document is exported with the book the page numbers to spoil. And it's not all documents in my book; This error starts to a particular document and continues from there throughout the rest of the book, affecting any document more than 2 pages. Documents several pages before that point in the book for export with the correct page numbers.

I create new documents by performing a "save under" with a previously created document and cut and paste as needed, so I won't have to reformat or implement the page numbers on each new document. I use layers or styles (I do not know there is a better way to do what I need, but I didn't have time to learn the basics, just enough to be functional.)

My attempts to resolve this problem so far (using version 5.5), tests with the first document where the error: (1) I have removed the document from the book, removed the page number character current insert, back to the current page number character insert, saved, the individual document exported in pdf format and it worked fine. Put it in the book, save, export, and it is bad. (2) I picked up the book document, export the document to .idml, registered as a new .indd new name, exported to PDF and it worked fine. Put it in the book, save, export, and it is bad. (3) I started to the top of my old version of ID, open from the previous version of this document, exported .inx, closed, open the .inx in ID 5.5, registered as a new .indd new name, exported to PDF and it worked fine. Put it in the book, save, export, and it is bad. (4) I moved the document to the top in the order book, put it on a document which correctly numbered pages, saved, exported to PDF and this document was still evil, but one who has been numbered correctly all along is still correct. (5) I compared the settings for this document to others that the number properly and found no difference.

It's as if the page numbers get hooked on "2" when I export the book, but only in the last two-thirds of the book. Sorry this is so long, but I hope that this description of my problem is understandable. Any advice, other than to go back to my old version documents and start over?

Thank you for your time and all the information great this forum provides.

Normally, I would say that this kind of problem is symptomatic of the incorrect numbering options in the book panel or an individual document or a bad update of the numbering, and those things are still definitely worth looking at.

That said, I invite you to go to the original files, export each one to .inx and open those in CS5.5 and save as a new file .indd CS5.5 whose new name, then add them to a whole new book CS5.5. Books are pretty flakey without mixture in the conversion of files, and there are enough bad behvior file conversion directly inherited the .inx route is insurance a little success.

  • No driver error when you include traditional DAQ in the Kit of Distribution CVI 9.0

    I have a legacy code (CVI 6.0) that I wanted to update recently.  The main reason was the ability to add the device drivers for the distribution kit.  When I installed the software on a new machine, I had a driver number error when you make a call to CounterStart.  In the past that error means that I had not included support CVI when I installed traditional DAQ.  Since that it has been installed as part of a kit of distribution that I do not see what elements have been installed.  I guess that since it was listed in the framework if a distribution of CVI kit that support the CVI is automatically.  How can I get rid of not the pilot error?

    Hello

    Unfortuantely, there is no way to have included in a CVI tDaq generate setup with the support of the CVI.  R & D is aware of the issue.  For now, the solution is to modify the installation of tDaq and add support for the CVI.

  • When you export to epub, only about 1/3 of my chapters receive page breaks. Each chapter is in its own doc, and I tried to split apart by doc. and H1, without success. Help

    All my styles to paragraphs seem to jive, and no matter what I do, most of my chapters seem to miss their page breaks. I've heard of others having this issue with earlier versions of Indesign, but I'm on CC2014, and I thought that should be fixed now. I really won't need to learn HTML code and go break the doc epub to fix it manually, because it still doesn't work across all devices either.  I know others have this problem before racing. What I am doing wrong?

    Make sure that the paragraph style applied to the chapter title (if it is the first line of each chapter) is the tag. Open the paragraph style and go to the export of marking and Split Document (epub only). Then, when you export (assuming you are using recomposable) under general > check Split Document based on paragraph Style tags export. Try it and tell us if it helps.

    Hi sdr2014,

    I'm sorry to hear that your conversion process is at a standstill. It seems that the problem is not specific to a single file, you have been unable to convert anything, since the first four chapters of a correct conversion.

    So, let's try this:

    If you want to convert via the ExportPDF site, please sign out, clear the browser cache, and then reconnect. If you use the drive, please choose Help > updates to ensure that you have installed the latest version.

    Please let us know how it goes.

    Best,

  • Error: "there was a disk error when you write to the file C\:Program files (x 86) \microsoft games\dungeon siege\resources\objects.dsres" during the installation of Dungeon Siege.

    When I try to install it it comes up with an error about 16% in the installation, saying that there is a disk error when you write to the file C\:Program files (x 86) \microsoft games\dungeon siege\resources\objects.dsres

    Any ideas?

    Hi MouseToe,

    What version of Dungeon Siege you trying to install?

    The cause of this problem could be the corrupted resource (.dsres) file or disk error. Here are some things you can do to solve the problem.

    Method 1: Run the disk check.

     

    Check the integrity of your hard disk for lost clusters and errors.

    To do this, follow the steps in this article: check a drive for errors

    Method 2: Defragment the hard disk.

    This improves the performance of your hard drive.

    Reference: improve performance by defragmenting your hard drive

    Method 3: Run the game as administrator.

    Here's how:

    (a) right click on the game configuration file.

    (b) choose 'Run as administrator'.

    Method 4: Try to install the game in a different folder or to a different drive

     

    Try to install the game in a different folder. If the computer has another hard disk, try to install the game on the other hard drive.

    Follow these steps.

    a. Insert the game disc in the drive.

    Note: Do not click on Quick Installation during installation.

    b. follow the setting menus until you see the change button.

    c. click change.

    d. in the path box, delete the existing path, and then type the following text:

    drive: \Program Files\Microsoftgame name Games\

    In this example,drive is the letter of the hard disk drive and the name of the game is the name of the game you are trying to install.

    e. click OK when finished.

    f. follow the instructions that appear on the screen to install the game.

    This should be it.
