Header and footers with page count

Version 10 Forms Web Customizations
Updated October 10, 2017
asked on June 7, 2017

I am currently looking into creating a header and footer for a Laserfiche Form. This would need to include the page count on either the header or the footer when printing. I have referenced the following answers page: http://answers.laserfiche.com/questions/66136/Is-there-a-way-to-enter-a-unique-footer-in-Laserfiche-Forms#66181 and tested this out. This is a close solution though if it is not possible I can attempt to do this through workflow by adding annotations to the pages.

For printing, if you are saving submissions to repository, you can use wkhtmltopdf options for adding header/footer.

First check https://wkhtmltopdf.org/usage/wkhtmltopdf.txt for options you want to use. For example, to add a footer in the center with content like page/total page, use "--footer-center [page]/[topage]".

Then, edit [cf_options] table of Forms database, add new row with optionname "WkhtmltopdfArguments" and optionvalue as above.

With this option, when save file to repository, it will add footer on every page with page count.

If you meant printing on browser I don't think there is reliable solution for adding page count. Possible solution is like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43768941/how-to-print-with-page-numbers-in-media-print

This is perfect but how can you control which forms use the new option you added to cf_options and which ones don't?  As this is their first form it looks great but if they do not want it on future forms how is that controlled in Forms?

Hi Beau,

There is no way to control this for individual processes; it will affect all processes.

If you need this feature, can you open a new post for feature request? Thanks.

No problem.  Thanks for the help as this is still a great feature to know about.
