Though I have digged inside the Style of MS Office five years ago when I joining SAP, I felt strongly loss when I tried to add a customized page Footer to the document.

Requirement: (1) Footer should contain the page number as well as the total amount of pages. (2) Footer should indicate the name of latest character. (3) Footer should be automatically updated after the content has updated. (4) Nice to have: fashion style.

First of all, we need a Field at Footer Design Tools.

Finally, I got the my result out: 006

Cheers!
