iReport page footer problem

[CharleyDC5]

Hi all,

Actually I have a problem which is quite annoying in iReport... My jrxml report has 3 sections : Page header, detail & footer. It is a kind of letter which is dynamically generated, depending on some filters filled by the client. The report is generating a contract for an employee.

In the page header section, I have the enterprise logo. In the detail section, I got all information about the employee, followed by an horizontal line, in order to separate from the contract conditions listed right after. Those conditions are dynamically generated from a SQL variable (Concatenate variable with all the condition paragraphes inside). Each condition represents a paragraph in the detail band. Is there a way to set the page footer to "static" or something like that ?

For example, if I have only two little paragraphs in a contract, my page footer will NOT be overridden because the report will not need another detail band page.

If I have 15 paragraphs (so I need more than one detail band page), the page footer is overridden.. It looks like it is just floating here as a layer... But I just can't find any configuration to fix my problem..

Thank you very much for help

Have a good day
