Helpful tips
Get the best result
Use page number tokens
Add {page} for the current page and {total} for the total number of pages. Example: Page {page} of {total}.
Header and footer are independent
Use either one or both, with separate left, center, or right alignment.
Existing rotation is respected
Placement is calculated against each page's visible orientation so rotated pages remain readable.
