The Page Footer band is used to output information such as page numbers, dates, and company information at the bottom of a page. The Page Footer band is output at the bottom of every page of the report.  An unlimited number of Page Footer bands can be placed on a page.

 

Note: The number of Page Footer bands that can be placed on a page is effectively unlimited other than by available space.

 

Example

Create a new report and drop three bands on a page: a Page Footer band for the current page number and number of pages in the report, a Data band to output data and a Header band band to output data column headers. Drop a text component on the Page Footer band and enter the following expression in the Text Property Editor:

 

 

{PageNofM}

 

 

Note: If you prefer instead of typing the expression it is possible to select it from the System Variables in the Expression Editor.

 

The result should look something like this:

 

 

Now run the report, and you will see that the page number is printed at the  bottom of each page.
