      Hi experts, I hope you are having a good day.

      I’m trying to include the Current Page Number Marker in my design on the Master Page. I set the Text Frame Auto Size Options to Width Only so that the size on the text frame will increase once we reach the 10s or 100s. The problem I’m facing is that the text frame size remains fixed and the numbers don’t have enough room and end up overlapping each other. How to fix this issue?

      Unless the frame has visible (meaning in print) edge for a design reason, I don’t see why it’s not simply wide enough to accommodate the 100s or heck, more.

      This is how page number 12 looks like:

      It works fine on the Master Page, but on the rest, the Auto Size doesn’t work and the text frame size would not increase

      Yeah, auto page numbers are variables, so they’re not like other text. They definitely don’t work with the Auto-Size feature very well!
