HtmlRenderer & PDFsharp add footer to each page

Question

I am trying to put a copyright symbol at the bottom of each page when the PDF is generated but I cant seem to get it to work. How would I go about doing such a thing? I am using HtmlRenderer and PDFsharp, take my HTML body and convert it to a PDF file that the user can download.

I don't want to put a watermark over the top as it is a legal document for paying customers, I just wanted the little copyright symbol company name and date at the bottom.

Is there a way of saying to PDFsharp to use a say template PDF file that has a footer with the info at the bottom or is there a way of setting it in the physical code?

Answer 1

I Worked it out if you add styling position:fixed and then a top position because it doesnt understand bottom it will add a text to every page wherever you align it to.

Answer 2

If anyone would like more information on this I've linked a pull request which details the use of position: fixed to create header/footers.

There is also a class in the generator itself PdfGenerateConfig which will allow you to create corresponding margins in the document.
