    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            TextDocument doc = new TextDocument();

            PageNumber pageNum = new PageNumber();
            pageNum.setSelectPage(SelectPage.CURRENT);

            PageCount pageCount = new PageCount();

            Paragraph footerPara = new Paragraph();
            footerPara.add("Page ");
            footerPara.add(pageNum);
            footerPara.add(" of ");
            footerPara.add(pageCount);

            Footer footer = new Footer();

            MasterPage masterPage = new MasterPage();
            masterPage.setName("Standard");
            masterPage.setFooter(footer);
            doc.getCommonStyles().getMasterStyles().getMasterPages().add(masterPage);
