How can I change the page numbering in a PDF report generated by Matlab 2017a?

How can I change the page numbering in a PDF report generated by Matlab 2017a?

Currently running a default; page numbers are displayed at the bottom - "x" where x is the current page number; I want to change it so that it displays "x of y" where x is current page, and y is total number of pages.

This is an automatic report, created by a predecessor, and I'm trying to just edit. I don't want to start anything from scratch. I also have close to 0 experience with the report generator. I've attached a picture with the current status of my report explorer.

Thanks

You can edit the report template to include the following markup in the page footer template:

<p><page/> of <numpages/></p>

Hi Paul,

I'm wondering how to edit the page footer template in the report template? I used the stock report generator, and I'm not entirely sure where to edit the templates.

Thanks, Bogdan

First create a custom template by copying the default template and then edit it. See https://www.mathworks.com/help/rptgen/ug/create-a-custom-html-template.html

To locate the document part template name that defines the footer, see template-name attribute for the pfooter tag. Then locate and update that document part template as specified by Paul. This link might help: https://www.mathworks.com/help/rptgen/ug/add-page-footers-and-headers.html#bu710dp-1
