This extension based on Pagination 1.3.2 source code. It is beta-version now. Your feedback is needed. So feel free to leave your coments here.
I added some features to original Pagination:
1. It works now with all page styles.
2. Ability to insert text blocks "Page 1 of N"
3. You can specify pages that will not be numbered (read instruction below).
4. Made little interface changes.
To insert text block "Page 1 of N" you should:
1. Press button "More"
2. Check box "Insert text 'Page 1 of N'"
3. Change text in textbox if needed.
4. Press OK button.
To specify pages that will not be numbered, you should:
1. Press button "More"
2. Uncheck box "Number pages with all styles"
3. Press button "Select"
4. Choose what to do:
a) (recommended) - uncheck items in list with styles you don't want to number. These styles must be created before.
b) (use it carefully) - specify the numbers of pages in textbox. You can write range of pages. For example: "5, 10, 15-20". It is strongly recommended to insert manual breaks (Ctrl+Enter) before and after these pages.
5. Press OK
6. Press OK in main Pager's dialog
Unnumbered page styles will be written to document's field and next time they would not be numbered automatically.
If you choose to specify page number, there new page style named "OldStyleName_Pagination" will appear and this style will be written to document as unnumbered style.

I don't see how to start Pager
Under my "Insert" menu, I have "Page Number...", but nothing called "Pager".
"Page Number..." just opens the window for the Pagination extension. (There is no "More" button, for example.)
I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.
"Insert-Page Number" - so
"Insert-Page Number" - so you can call Pager (or it's parent - Pagination). About absent "More" button - maybe you installed extension Pagination after Pager? Try to install Pager once again.
I disabled and re-enabled Pager & Pagination in Ext. Manager
Now it works.
Update don't work
Try to update 0.9.3 to 0.9.4: but no update file found
Nice job!
Do you mean updating with
Do you mean updating with Extension manager in OOo? Maybe that's because Pager still tied to Pagination some way... I concentrate now on localisations and bugs in Pager but I'll look for update later.
Pager's localisations
Pager's base - Pagination - has many localisations. Pager has only [bad] English and Russian localisations now. I need help with Pager's localisations. If you use OOo with another localisation, you'll get English text instead of your native. If You want to help to translate Pager to your language - please feel free to contact me.
