I'm trying to put a disclaimer at the bottom of the last page of a report. However, the report length will vary based on the number of records returned. I've found a solution using the <fo:block-container> at:

However, as we are using an older version of Apache's FOP (0.20.1), this element isn't supported. Does anyone know of a solution that doesn't require using <fo:block-container>?

Since it has to be at the bottom, have you considered putting a footnote at the end of the flow and using an empty footnote citation? The formatter will then put your disclaimer in the footnote reference area at the bottom of the last page.


Sorry, I don't know if footnotes are supported in FOP.

I hope this helps.
