You will need to show more of your code, or a reproducible example.

The following example does number pages correctly

options papersize = (8.5in 2in);

ods pdf file="cars.pdf" style=journal;

ODS escapechar='^';

title "sashelp.Cars" j=right  'page ^{thispage} of ^{lastpage}';

proc print noobs data=sashelp.cars;
  var make model type msrp invoice;
run;

ods pdf close;

PDF view capture

yes , initially it came but what happened I don't know suddenly it's did't work and not generating page numbers, do we have any other options to generate page numbers?

If I use below options it printing like page 1, but I want it as page 1 of 4

page ^{thispage}

Show the log from a code example that produces the wrong page numbers; start with the initial ODS PDF, and end with the ODS PDF CLOSE. If you use data that can't be taken out of SASHELP, provide it in a data step with datalines.
