How to set footer only work on the last page.

#26848

I’m wondering if there is a way to set footer only display on last page or is there a way to get total page before render. My code Java api is to create pdf file based on a html url.
Thanks for help.

The feature is problematic to implement. In an extreme case the last page may have no space to place a footer: it should force a page break and the trailing footer goes to new page with no content, which is undesired.

As a workaround it you may use a conditional page break to move some content to next page (if needed, to make the last page not totally blank) and a footnote.

Example:

....
....
text text text ...

the last text section...
....
....
trailing footer

The page break will take effect only if the remaining vertical page space is less than 200px (and the last text section + footnote do not presumably fit it)

ifSpaceBelowLessThan parameter value for your document structure/layout needs to be found an empiric way.
