Hi Brian,

Thank you for the advices, but I expect that textflow to stop before  the
page footer and start from next page instead of covering over the page
number. That's what I'm asking for help.
I use it in a way as a form to collect opinions from other people and
append new text. ( like issue tracking ) I believe this is not an unusual
case of spreadsheet usage and using writer arise other inconvenience
despite it solves formatting problem.
