Hi Everyone! Is there a way to insert a date field that updates automagically in a pagemaker document? I have a document that has a lot of dates at the top, in different formats. I'd like to automatically update the year in those dates to be last year (this is our annual report). I would do it with a master sheet, but given that some have text before the dates, etc, it wouldn't really save me any work. Thanks in advance for your help!

 
PM has an date/time stamp but I don't think it's sophisticated enough to meet your requirements.

Click File -> Place and browse to "Datetime.tym" in the PM folder. It's actually a scalable graphic, not simple text.

It's possible there's a script that will do what you need, but I can't help any further. 9.14 - Scripts and PM
