Hello,
I have a problem generating a document with page headers/footer. The
document is one big table.
I dont need the default style page headers/footers (I looked at page events
already) that are always placed at the top/bottom of a page but table based
that are added at the top/bottom of the report table (only on page if table
spans multiple pages).
Example document structure as visible in pdf viewer:
Document Header (Only on first page)
Document Page Header (Every page except the first)
Report Page Header (Every page)
Report Data
Report Page Footer (Every page)
Document Page Footer (Every page except the last)
Document Footer (Only on last page)
All parts need to fit tightly together so no spacing between the parts (so
the page footer for the last page can be in the middle of the page depending
on the size of the report)
I tried 3 ways to accomplish this but each one failed.
What I basically need is the result of test2 but seamless.

1)
Use separate tables for the document header and document footer and add the
document page headers/footers to the report table
Problems with test1:
- The report header/footer is also excluded the first/last page
- The page/report footer on the first page are to low (even go off page if
more footer rows are added)
- The document footer table on last page is to low (seems like the space for
the skipped footers is still used while they are not rendered)

2)
Use separate tables for the document header and document footer.
Use new table for document page header/footer and report, report is embedded
in this table and has its own page headers/footers.
Problems with test2:
- The document header is on the first page while the rest of the report
starts on the second page
- the document footer table on the last page is to low (same as in test 1)

3)
Use separate tables for the document header and document footer
Use new table for document page header/footer and report, report is embedded
in this table and has its own page headers/footers.
Ad the above 3 tables to a new layout table and add that to the document.
Problems with test3:
- Same as test2
