If the last item comes at the very foot of the page, and the page
breaks with only the lastfoot to display, is there any logic to
prevent the head being shown at the top of the next page?
I have not used your template verbatim - although it is quite
beautiful, it is not quite my style of formatting, so I started again
from scratch and have used yours only for reference.
I have found one of my invoices has two pages.
On the first is:
Part Description Price Quantity Amount
101 Fangle £1 3 £3
237 Wonkle £2 1 £2
...
093 Chocolate £0.5 3 £1.5
and on the second is only:
Part Description Price Quantity Amount
Total £6.5
(I have laid out these examples so they make sense if viewed in a
fixed-width font).
I have been so impressed by your responses to my recent questions
that I cannot believe that you have missed this, yet I cannot quickly
see how you have solved this problem regarding invoices of a certain
length.
