Hi EveryOne,

I have disigned a template where i have selected the Summary on a new page in the Report properties, so in the PDF summary is coming on the new page but header & footer are not displayed. can anybody suggest why is it so.

Thanks,

It is as it is... so the engine works by design.

The summary is thought to show final data e.g. a chart or something like that. So no PageHeader or Footer is drawn when it's a extra page. (IMHO)

 

So if you want to have pageheader and footer you could create a so called "dummygroup" without any expression where you place your elements in "dummygroupfooterband" instead of summary. So this is also the last band but shows pageheader and footer.

If you want a pagebreak between, you could add a pagebreak element at y=0.

Hi,

 

a so called "dummygroup" is nothing else than a normal group but without any expression (that's why "dummy") so it will just appear once.

Well this is quite difficult, but possible.

 

take a look here:

I made some samples and also a demo JRXML to understand the "trick 17" :-)

By default, the page header does not apply to the summary band.

Since Jasper 3.6.1, there is a report property that can be used to force the summary band also to have page header, called 'Summary with Page header and footer'. You should check it in iReport, or set isSummaryWithPageHeaderAndFooter="true" in the jasperReport tag.
