We normally do not recommend this, but since you want to edit the XML
yourself, you can add the following snippet of XML after the last
</section> line, and before the </abiword> line.

<section type="footer" id="ftr01">
<p PROPS="text-align:center">
Page <field type="page_number"/> of <field type="page_count"/>
</p>
</section>
