Can the header & the footer be page numbered differently?

For Minutes, I need to both paginate the header (starting at Page 1 and each
month adding to the previous month's page numbers) as well as paginate the
footer with the number of pages in the current document only. For example,
if January's minutes are 1-3, I need February's header to start with page 4
and continue and the footer be number 1 of 2, 2 of 2, etc. The footer
automatically changes to whatever the header page numbers are. Can the
footer and header be numbered differently?

Hi Nouveaux Niecie,

If you insert 'Next page' Section breaks between the various sets of minutes, you can use the PAGE field for the Document page
count, plus a NUMPAGES field for the total document page count, and the following formula field (which needs to be in each Section's
header or footer) for the Section page count:
{QUOTE{IF{PAGE}= 1 {SET Section0 0}}
{IF{PAGE}{NUMPAGES} {IF{={SECTIONPAGES}+{REF {QUOTE Section{={SECTION}-1}}}}={PAGE} {SET {QUOTE Section{SECTION}} {PAGE}}}}
"Page {={PAGE}-{REF {QUOTE Section{={SECTION}-1}}}} of {SECTIONPAGES}"}
Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste
them from this message.

You can omit the ' of {SECTIONPAGES}' part if you don't need it.
