I am on Powerbuilder 2022 R3 and I am looking into using the new PDFDocument functionality

I can't seem to find the functionality to add paging into the document. Say for example "Page 5 of 20"

if I am importing 5 datawindows into a document I imagine that the paging cannot come from each datawindow and should be added after the pdf is built. Is there functionality for this?

You could loop through all pages of the document (see GetPage, GetPageCount) and add a text with the page number (see AddContent).

hi thanks for this... i did see this function but i couldnt find a parameter or an example on how to set the position of the newly added text. Say for example I want to set it at the header or footer or somewhere else. Can this be done?
