Globals

Built-in $global.NAME tokens for date, time, page numbers, and document metadata. Use them anywhere text is accepted (paragraphs, headings, table cells, list items, header/footer content) — except the dynamic page-related tokens, which only resolve in headers and footers.

{ "p": "Generated $global.DATE — Page $global.PAGE of $global.NUMPAGES" }

Document metadata

Token	Source
$global.AUTHOR	metadata.author
$global.TITLE	metadata.title
$global.SUBJECT	metadata.subject
$global.KEYWORDS	metadata.keywords

Missing metadata fields resolve to an empty string.

Page numbers

Token	Output	Supported in
$global.PAGE	Current page number	Header / footer only
$global.NUMPAGES	Total page count	Header / footer only
$global.SECTION	Current section number	Header / footer only

:::caution Header/footer only Used outside header or footer content, these render as literal text. :::

{
  "footer": {
    "content": [
      { "p": "Page $global.PAGE of $global.NUMPAGES" }
    ]
  }
}

Notes

• Trailing period is sentence punctuation: $global.NUMPAGES. → 12.
• Unknown tokens (typos) are kept verbatim so the mistake is visible.
• Inline tags wrap globals normally: [b]$global.AUTHOR[/b], [caps]$global.DATE.MONTHNAME[/caps].
