Possible to remove pages from page count?

Wait, if all you want to do is remove the total number of pages from what is showing, that us fairly easy! Just go to the actions that create the text field.Find the one that says "Add total pages"Before it insert two actions:On Show; Modify Variable; Target: temp (a new variable); Value: Var(PagesInChapter) (or PagesInTitle); Type: SetOn Show; Modify Variable; Target: temp; Value: 4; Type: SubtractThen modify the existing "Add total pages" action and replace the Value field with: Var(temp)Problem as I see it is that all your page numbers (PageInChapter) after this one will be off by 4. So one alternative is to put all the pages after the simu in a section and have a slightly different set of page numbering for it. Apply the same technique as above to the page number for that section.The TOC comment is if you don't want the pages to show in a Table of Contents if you used one.
