We have some flows where we include a tekst (order number en custiomer information) We do this with a variable. So when we start the flow we just fill in the tekst en push run. But i want to include a page number. What is the string code for this and where do i need to put this?

Hi

What do you want to achieve exactly? If you want to add page numbers, there is an action for that (See Add Page Number).

I have a varible "text toevoegen". if you run the workflow on a PDF page it wil do some things. Like putting a cutline and placing grumits and placing a text outside the trimbox with ordernumber and customer info (this line of tekst you need to fill in when you run the flow) But i like to have the page number also there. (because some PDF have multi pages)

So you will get something like this: 14595_OUTSTAND_Textiel_Blackback_A_Copernicare_Links_3330x2500mm - page 1 of 2

Ok, I think I see the trouble. You cannot use built-in variables in combination with a variable.
What you could do is having two "Add Objects - Text" actions. One that would use the text with your variables. Then the second one that would use the built-in variables.
I understand it's not as convenient as using one single action but it can work. Of course, you just have to deal with positioning.

Hope that helps.

I looked at that also but we have lots of flows where there is text on 4 sides of the files so that meens lots of work.... I now have something in the varibles that works ( its not nice to see but it works for now). Mayby in a update the option can be build in to the varible.

Hi,
Page Number and Page Count are built-in variables that you can call from adding text (Add Object Action). You don't need an external variable to display that info.
I thought you wanted to mix some external variables data with built-in variables, hence my previous answer.

i found that but you can not put a variable tekst there and the page count code. It only uses 1 of them, either the variable ore the page count.
