Page Layout ⇒ explicit page numbering page x of y

Say I have a document with 103 pages.
How can I make the pagenumbering lik 1(103), 2(103), etc.?

Hi Kent,

you can use the lastpage package. You need to compile two times to get the reference to the last page.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{lastpage}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy} 
\cfoot{\thepage(\pageref{LastPage})}
\begin{document}
\Blinddocument
\end{document}

Thanks again for good and fast help!
One question, using your code:
At the last page of the my document I have a reference section (\begin{the bibliography}...\end{thebibliography}).
Strangely, this activates a left and right header REFERENCES to be printed on the last side. Headers are not written to any page in your
file. Any comments? (I get rid of the problem by explicitly defining \lhead{} and \rhead{} in my Latex file.)

It depends on how your document class defined the thebibliography environment. Which document class are you using?

Maybe simply insert \lhead{} and \rhead{} before the bibliography. Normally the class feature should be modified.
