Hi,
When I build a sample .docx and look at the the XML inside the docx,
contains the following for the page-item in the header:
<w:p ...>
...
<w:r>
<w:instrText xml:space="preserve"> PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT
</w:instrText>
</w:r>
w:p is CTP/XWPFParagraph, w:r is CTR/XWPFRun, and the CTR has a method
addNewInstrText() which might do what you need here via the low-level APIs
of POI.
Domink.
