Add total number of pages in the bottom-of-page of a PDF export ?

Add total number of pages in the bottom-of-page of a PDF export ?

I want to add "page 3 of 143" at the bottom of the page.

It's ok for "page 3" with http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONF35/Editing+the+PDF+Stylesheet#EditingthePDFStylesheet-ExamplesofBasicCustomisations

but I cannot find the total number.

The total number of pages is retrieved with "counter(pages)". Thus "page 3 of 143" translates as

content: "page " counter(page) " of " counter(pages);

The page number is inserted with CSS counters. As far as I know there is no possibility to count all pages in CSS. So there is no chance for you to the the total page number in dhe PDF...

I've tried following, even some comments say it won't work:

In the "PDF stylesheet" section, add following:

@page
{

@bottom-left
{
content: " © my company goes here" ;
font-family: ConfluenceInstalledFont, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 8pt;
}
@bottom-right
{
content: "Page " counter(page) " of " counter(pages); /* Page Counters */
font-family: ConfluenceInstalledFont, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 8pt;
}

/* Any other page-specific rules */

}

Works fine.

What did you do exactly? Where did you enter the above code? Where is the text supposed to appear?

In short: This is CSS code. It must be entered in the PDF stylesheet and will create text in a PDF when the wiki page is exported via "Export to PDF".

The solution proposed here, works as follows:

Add the following code at Browse > Space Admin > PDF stylesheet

@page {
@bottom-right {
content: counter(page) " / " counter(pages);
}
}

Click Tools > Export to PDF

The result will be a PDF with the page number(s) "x / x" at the bottom right of your PDF file.

You seem to try something different which I am not familiar with. So I can't help with that.
