Table size spanning pages

["Noll, Jeffrey T HS" <je...@hs.utc.com>]

I've run into a problem with formatting a table for an invoice.

What I'm looking to do is for the table footer to be placed in the same
location on the last page of the invoice. IE: the total invoice value and
summary notes should be placed 1" from the bottom of the page. What's
happening now is that the footer is getting printed whever the table leaves
off.

Is there any way to force it so that the table fills to a certain size on
each page? I've thought about padding with table-rows but I can't figure out
how many I need to add because of variable text lengths that wrap previous
row sizes.

Any advice on how to handle this? When paging through invoices people would
like to have the location of table footer in the same location.

Don't use a table footer. Attach a marker to the last row of the table
containing the total value and whatever, if necessary as a complete
table itself, end reference the marker in the region-after text. It may
be necessary to have the region overlap the body in order to get
the summary placed properly.
