fmtcount package (out-of-date) FAQ
How do I use the value of a label in \numberstring, \ordinalstring etc? 🔗
Try using Heiko Oberdiek's refcount package which provides commands that will set a counter to the number given by a label. You can then pass that counter to \numberstring
etc. For example:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage{fmtcount} \usepackage{refcount} \begin{document} \newcounter{myctr}\setcounterpageref{myctr}{pg:last} First page. This document has \numberstring{myctr} pages. \newpage Second page.\label{pg:last} \end{document}
