     Posted: 05 Jun 2015 at 3:55am
I have a page footer that contains Page X of Y.  It prints nicely at the bottom of every page.

I added another page footer that I just want to print at the bottom of the first page.  So I have Page Footer A (suppress if pagenumber <>1) and Page Footer B.  After the first page Page Footer B is no longer at the bottom of the page but up to the height where Page Footer A should print.  The Print at Bottom of Page check box is grayed out.

I would like Page Footer B to print at the bottom of each page.

Thanks,

to be clear, each pager footer is correctly suppressed or not based on your suppression criteria, the issue is that it seems to be printing slighthly higher than you want leaving extra blank space at the bottom of the page?

u want black space in all page or just on first page if first page then do following.

page footer a section expert(pagenumber<>1)
page footer B do nothing for it
so page footer B will comes every page and page footer A comes once.

Hi Niha,

That is how I have it setup.  The problem is that on pages where Page Footer A is suppressed Page Footer B does not print at the bottom of the page.  It prints a few inches up the page.

the option is grayed out because Page Footers always print on the bottom of the page.
the order of footer section is like
PAGE FOOTER A then PAGE FOOTER B
For both section do FIT SECTION and check it. it will be work.

In the section expert,
select the Page Footer (not A or B)
make sure the 'Reserve Minimum Page Footer' is unchecked
