Bummer. I have played around with this, and it is still causing problems. I 
created an invoice that I know will have two pages. Then, in the page footer, I 
hardcoded the print when condition to only print when the calc.PAGE_NUMBER is 
2. This does hide/show the page footer on the appropriate page. However, it 
still reserves the space on the first page. So instead of the report printing 
the footer twice, it just has a blank spot on the first page and the real 
information on the second page.

Any thoughts on this? Does anyone know the point man at Adobe that I could ping 
for some help?

Cheers,
Mike
