Default What I type changes when I press space bar

Either when I type Page #s or web addresses, brackets & words are added when I press the space bar. If I have a 3 page document &
I want to have it automatically count, like Page 1 of 3, page 2 of 3
etc. as soon as I press the space bar instead of seeing page 1 of 3
I will see Page {Page} of {Numpages}. So while I'm working in the
document, I can't tell which page I'm on unless I scoll to the start.

Likewise, if I type a web address {Hyperlink ...} automatically
appears.
Is there a way I can prevent the brackets & extra words from
appearing? Thanks much.
Larry
