Enter information as follows for the first stamp, which is for pages 1 through 9:

Page range settings:
Start = 1

Hit the Add button (located at the middle of the dialog's left side)

Enter information as follows for the second stamp, which is for pages 10 through 99:

Stamp text = 0%g
Page range settings:
Start = 10
End = 99

Hit the Add button again

Enter information as follows for the third stamp, which is for pages 100 through 999:
