Hi,

Currently Page Numbers appear only in Numeric form i.e. 1...27, etc. But it should be able to support alphanumeric text say like Roman Numbers i.e. i, ii, iii, or One, Two, or can be in context of a major section in PDF say 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 .... i.e. "Section Number" - "Page Number".

Please refer the link below: http://www.ujihara.jp/iTextdotNET/examples/Chap1110.pdf

and expand its "Pages" section or Toolbar which refers to Page Numbers

It is supported by iTextdotNet.

Hello Rajat,

Thanks for considering Aspose.

I am pleased to inform you that you can specify a particular page numbering format for the resultant PDF. The numbering format can either be Arab, RomanUpper, RomanLower, EnglishUpper or EnglishLower. In order to accomplish this requirement, you need to use PageNumberFormat property of Pdf class and you can use any of the value from PageNumberFormatType enumeration.

In case you need to get the page numbering for a specific section, you can use $Sp (Displays page number in the current section) or $SP (Displays page count of the current section) and the symbols will be replaced with respective values at runtime. Please visit the following link for further information on how to use Replaceable Symbols

Please note that you can only specify the PageNumber formatting inside the PDF document and I am afraid Aspose.Pdf does not support the feature to specify formatting information over the controls of PDF viewer tool   i.e. Adobe Reader etc. As far as I can see in the PDF document shared over http://www.ujihara.jp/iTextdotNET/examples/Chap1110.pdf, the page number formatting is also specified over the StatusBar section and I am afraid this feature is not supported. We apologize for your inconvenience.

In the event of any further query, please feel free to contact.
