Layout Headers and Layout Footers

Each layout of a multi-layout document contains a Layout Header and a Layout Footer. That is, a document can contain several Layout Headers and several Layout Footers.

A document with only one layout has a Document Header and a Document Footer instead of Layout Headers and Layout Footers.

Layout Header

The Layout Header only appears in multi-layout documents. This section prints once at the beginning of the layout, immediately below the Page Header section. Any data fields placed in the Layout Header are calculated using all of the data in the layout. For example, a metric in the Layout Header displays as a grand total.

Layout Footer

This section prints only once, at the end of the layout. It can be used to display closing notes, a conclusion, or a summary.
