Since the total page number is available in the goto page menu it should be easy to display the current and the total page number.
Tompe,

But again, that doesn't make sense. If you prefer Berling Antiqua font at font level 5 and I prefer Verdana at font level 7, your 'page 255' is going to be *pages* away from *my* 'page 255'. So no, that's not reason enough.
