Technicaly, I know how to set the html footer in mpdf, but I have an issue that I can't get around with.
I am generating an invoice. The invoice have an items table which can vary in the number of items. In the last page(ie. after the items table) of the invoice I am setting a page-footer whith the company consent and a signature field. So that the block containing these two goes at the end of the current page(about 70mm in height). It does'nt nesessarily need to be a footer; a fixed block also works(but the same issue applies).
The Issue
When the list items is relatievly small it works perfectly well as expected; Also, when the list items is more. But, when the list item is in a range the content overlaps.
Currently I have tried:
Option 1Set the block using a fixed position at the bottom.
Issue: The same.
Option 2Increase the margin-bottom to 70mm.
Issue: The overlapping is fixed, however when the content is more and needs to have two or more pages worth of items - it leaves so much(70mm) of blank spaces in the previous pages.
Option 3Set the setAutoBottomMargin to stretch
Issue: The same. (Can't feel any difference)
Option 4Set a named page reserved for the last page.
Issue: The named page is not working on the first page. ie. It always have a second page. So even when the content is small it takes atleast two pages.
What I expect it to behave like
- when the content is small. Push this block to the end of the current page.
- when the content is in the range fill up the available spaces. and push this block to the next page.
Note: I am using <sethtmlpagefooter> as the last tag to set the footer for the page at runtime.
Can anybody help me?
If you require any image samples of the current outputs I can provide them. But I think this is a pretty common requirement and somebody would already have figured this out.
If my explaination is off. Please let me know, I can provide more info if needed.
Thank you
