Hello,
Is there a way to print page numbers according to the order the document is printed?

For example:
If the doc has 4 pages and 3 copies are printed: the "original" docs pages print 1,2,3,4 and
the 2nd set is 5,6,7,8 and
the 3rd set is 9,10,11,12

Can this be done automatically by entering a formula or something other than manually restarting page numbering before printing?
 
I think, if it were me, I'd do this instead, which might be a LITTLE bit easier (at least without using VBA).

Save the file to a new name.
Ctrl+End
Insert-File, choose your original, hit ok.
Ctrl+End
Insert-File, ...

Until you have as many copies as you want.

If it's not coming out as 1,2,3,4,5...

Then open the original, select the first page number, make sure it's not "start at" but is set for "continue from previous", save it and close it, and try reinserting again.

Maybe just wait for a VBA solution? Lemme know. I can poke around at least.
