Page numbering with horizontal pagination
Let's assume that there is a report that is very wide as well as long. It is decided that horizontal pagination will be used so that the report is printed over multiple A4 sheets with big readable fonts. However, when this report is printed, it is very difficult for the users to understand how they stitch together horizontally, and when actually a new page starts. Let's see how to solve this issue using appropriate page numbering.
Getting ready
Open the Sales report with horizontal pagination prepared in the previous recipe.

Click anywhere on the report page and choose PAGE from the Select Ancestor Properties pane.
Open the Pagination property and check the Enable horizontal page numbering...
