How to assign Ticket Numbering in InDesign?

Hello, I am creating a file in inDesign for a client that is asking for numbered tickets. They'd like to be able to print a specific number for each ticket. I've read some of the older answers for similar questions that refer to Data Merge, but I'd prefer not to take that route if avoidable. What I'd ultimately like to do is create a space for the numbers to go, select the number of pages within the Print menu, and have the spaces populate with the corresponding numbers while printing. If this is not possible within inDesign, is it possible in Acrobat? If neither, is there a program or script that would allow me to do this? Tutuapp 9Apps Showbox
