Variables
Variables display dynamic information in the title block. Write them in the form {variable-name}, and the program replaces the name with its actual value.
User Variables
You can define user variables at two levels:
a) For the entire project: F12 - Project - Variables
b) For a single page: the User Variables tab in the Page Setup dialog.
If a variable is defined at both levels, the page-level value takes precedence over the project-level value.

| name | meaning |
| _po | page number (ordinal) |

| _pcsc | total sheet count (for multi-page reports: one sheet of paper = one page) |
| _pa | page abbreviation (short name) |

Difference Between _po and _pcs
Consider a drawing with 3 pages:
Page 1 contains a drawing (1 sheet of paper).
Page 2 contains the bill of materials (5 sheets of paper).
Page 3 contains a drawing (1 sheet of paper).
Here's how the variable values differ across sheets:
| sheet | _po | _pcs |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 2 | 4 |
| 5 | 2 | 5 |
| 6 | 2 | 6 |
| 7 | 3 | 7 |
