Hi,

When a RadDocument is exported to docx file, page numbering doesn't work correctly. The total count and current page number is 1 on every page. When the same document is exported in pdf the numbering is fine... I'm using the code from you sample projects - CustomField class from CustomField_WPF used in TelerikEditorDemo_WPF project.

Hi George,

Word is not showing correctly the page numbering because it does recognize the field. You should use one of the fields that Word is aware of. You can find more information about them here.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

Can you please give an example of using field for page numbering that Word recognizes and also works for PDF?

Hi George,

Yes, the PAGE field is recognized in MS Word. To elaborate more on the case, the custom field defined in the example you have found is not defined in the fields that MS Word recognizes and can be used only in RadRichTextBox. If you would like to show the current page number, you can use the PAGE field and NUMPAGES will show you the total number of pages in the document.

Hope this is helpful.

Regards,
Tanya
