Hi Fawzy,
For my part I found it simpler to just deploy MapFish separately. This was a few years ago; I've not been as active with GeoServer so may have missed it, but I don't believe the plugin is anywhere near current, so I'd definitely suggest a standalone MFP deployment.

To answer your questions for MFP 2:
1) http://www.mapfish.org/doc/print/configuration.html#page-definition
"The “header” and “footer” sections are optional. If the “items” that are in the main section are too big, more pages are generated. The header and footer will be drawn on those pages as well."
2) Just include "PNG" in the formats:
"?formats:
  - pdf
  - png"

I've not used MFP 3, so would simply point you to the docs - http://mapfish.github.io/mapfish-print-doc/#/overview.
Cheers,
Jonathan

Hi,
I have two questions regarding the Geoserver's printing module:

1- In PDF format, how can I print a large map so that it will be devided into multiple pages?

2- How can I print in PNG format. I'v found many quite old posts that discuss this issue, and advice to use a newer version of MapFish, because Geoserver uses an old version of it. Does it still the issue?

Regarding,
Fawzy
