Log footers are plotted at the bottom of a log, or at the bottom of each log page. Like the header, they can contain textual information (company name, date, etc.), column labels, company logos, notes, etc. The footer text can be static (unchanging) or can change from log to log.
Within the Log Designer work screen, the footer's work area is at the bottom of the window. It shares the same design tools as the log header.
Use the scroll bars provided at the bottom and along the right side of the footer to view portions of the footer than you cannot currently see. You may also change the displayed size of the footer work area by positioning your pointer on the boundary bar at the top of the footer and dragging it up or down as appropriate.
You can design two distinct footer designs: "Footer #1" which is typically printed at the bottom of the first page, and "Footer #2" which typically displays on middle and end pages of non-continuous logs. All are optional.
When you invoke the New command (File menu) to create a new log design, the program will display a blank design screen. You may then insert a log footer item by clicking in the Footer pane to make it active, selecting one of the footer toolbar buttons and placing the item in the log footer section. You may use the displayed ruler for horizontal placement reference.
! Items in the log footer cannot be moved into the log body and vice-versa. However, footer items can be copied into and from the log header.
