#ADD PAGE X OF Y IN WORD 2016 UPDATE#
The general guidance is to update to the latest service pack for whatever version of Word you are using. Page X of Y displays or prints as of 1. In Word, click Home tab > Clipboard panel > Paste drop-down list > Paste Special. In AutoCAD, select the objects that you want to insert into a Word document. When you copy and paste a screen capture, however, the lines appear to be two or three pixels wide, making the image look blurry. The X of Y problem first cropped up in Word 97, and has amazingly (and persistently) continued into later versions of the software. You want to insert one-pixel vectors from a DWG file into a Microsoft Word file. The moon has no discernable effect on the performance of Word, as far as I can tell.)

The problem is that it may not work properly or consistently. This is easy enough to do with Word, and the program even provides an AutoText entry that allows you to easy add the Page X of Y notation in your header or footer. For instance, you could include information such as of 432 (or however many pages are in your document). Often it is helpful to have not only a page number in your document header or footer, but also an indication of how many pages there are in the entire document.
