Hi @yuyuiejal ,

The pdfmake documentation shows it does support footers, but I just tried it and it only seems to span two lines, so I don't think you can do what you're after I'm afraid.

Cheers.

I tried to hide and show methods but still not successful.

Can PDFmaker can allow background image? I think background image is the last solution.

Hi @yuyuiejal ,

I take it back, it can be done, you just need to change the pageMargins so that the bottom margin leaves spaces for the extended footer. I found that out while trying to get the image to display correctly.

For example, put this into the pdfmake playground:

var dd = {
    pageMargins: [40, 80, 40, 300],
    footer: {
        margin: 80,
        columns: [
            'this\nis\nthe\nfooter\nand\nit\ncan\nbe\nlarger'
        ]
    },
    content: [
        'First paragraph',
        'Another paragraph, this time a little bit longer to make sure, this line will be divided into at least two lines'
    ]
}

Then, transferred into the world of DataTables, see here,
