Page Field

Updated on Feb 19, 2026

Inserts the current page number.

In order to update the field within the TOC field you need to set the FlowExtensibilityManager.NumberingFieldsProvider.

Field Syntax

This is how the syntax of a Page field looks like:

Syntax
{ PAGE [\*Format Switch] }

Switches

Switches are a way for the code fragment to specify formatting for the result of the field. More information is available in the Syntax and Switches section of the Fields article.

The possible switches for a Page field are:

Switch	Description
\* Format Switch	Optional switch that specifies the format

Inserting

Inserting this field is easily achieved through the RadFlowDocumentEditor's InsertField() method. It accepts code as first argument and result as second argument.

Example 1 demonstrates how you can insert a date field.

Example 1: Insert page field

c#

editor.InsertText("Page ");
editor.InsertField("PAGE", "");
editor.InsertText(" of ");
editor.InsertField("NUMPAGES", "");

After updating the field the result would be "Page 3 of 6" (check Updating Fields).
