11/20/2020, 2:31 PMYes, that is a common problem with advanced PDF’s. If you use the footer, it will be on every page. If you put something at the end, it won’t always be at the bottom of the last page.
The only solution I know of is to create a pdfset, with PDF’s in the set. The second one will be your final page, with the table at the bottom. Unfortunately, that means it will appear on t he page AFTER the end of your main document, rather than at the bottom of the last page.
There is no way to achieve exactly what you are looking for, since the pagination of elements can’t be determined in advance.

11/20/2020, 2:36 PMOho, Yes I also tried to stick that to bottom, but it always gave error.

11/20/2020, 3:48 PMSadly, it doesn’t work. The page numbers are calculated by BFO dynamically, whereas the if statements are run prior to BFO, by FreeMarker. FreeMarker can never know the pages in advance. It could be producing a single page HTML file just as easily as a PDF. The FreeMarker template has no concept of pages.
As far as I know, there is no support for if statements in BFO, or any other kind of conditional logic.

11/20/2020, 3:51 PMBFO would need to add a new tag or property to support printing on the last page only to make this work.

11/20/2020, 3:52 PMYes , I have gone through the document , I also didn't find any logic to do that.
tuli
11/20/2020, 3:52 PMYes , I will write to BFO about this.

11/21/2020, 10:49 PMAt the moment we do not have a facility for explicitly assigning a footer or header to the last page in a document when the number of pages is unknown.👍 2
