+<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label nofm</title>
+</head><body>
+<h3>Page numbering &ldquo;&lt;<i>n</i>&gt; of &lt;<i>m</i>&gt;&rdquo;</h3>
+
+<p/>Finding the page number of the last page of a document, from within
+the document, is somewhat tricky. The <i>lastpage</i> package is
+therefore supplied to make life easy for us all; it defines a label
+<code>LastPage</code> whose number is <em>right</em> (after sufficiently many
+passes through LaTeX, of course). The <i>memoir</i> class also
+defines a &ldquo;last page&rdquo; label.
+<p/>The documentation of the <i>fancyhdr</i> package spells out exactly
+how one might actually use this information to produce page numbering
+as suggested in the question.
