Keyboard Shortcuts
Special Functions

These functions automatically insert a value where the key presses occur. Place the insertion pointer where the value should go and press the appropriate key sequence. If you type these key combinations on a master page, Sahafi puts a placeholder in position. The correct value is inserted on the actual pages.

  • Command-Option-Shift-3 inserts the page number of the current page at the insertion point. On a master page, the placeholder is ##.

  • Command-Option-Shift-4 inserts the page number of the page preceding the current page at the insertion point. On a master page, the placeholder is $$.

  • Command-Option-Shift-5 inserts the page number of the page after the current page at the insertion point. On a master page, the placeholder is %%.

  • Command-Option-Shift-6 inserts at the insertion point the page number of the page on which the text block before the current text block in a chain occurs. On a master page, the placeholder is ^^.

  • Command-Option-Shift-7 inserts at the insertion point the page number of the page on which the text block after the current text block in a chain occurs. On a master page, the placeholder is &&.

  • Command-Option-Shift-8 inserts the total number of pages in the current document at the insertion point.
