There is definitely some work to be done. This works, but no access to
any cfdocument variables:
<cfdocument format="pdf"
orientation="landscape"
src="http://#cgi.SERVER_NAME#";
filename="#ExpandPath("/spectrum-public/docs/DuroDesignShowrooms.pdf")#"
overwrite="true">
<style>
@page {
@bottom-center { content: element(footer); }
}
div.content {page-break-after: always;}
##footer { position: running(footer); font-size:2em; }
</style>
<div id="footer">
Footer information
</div>
<div class="content">
#event.getArg("layout.showrooms_usa")#
</div>
</cfdocument>
@Alan, is there a way we can parse the body for placeholders so we can
use flying saucer notation with CSS3 and still have cfdocument.* access
or something like it?
Confused said the following on 08/21/2012 12:46 AM:
Maybe I'm doing it wrong....
This code (not in a cfdocumentsection):
<cfoutput>
<p>
<cfif cfdocument.currentpagenumber is 1>
page 1 of #cfdocument.totalpagecount#
<cfelse>
page #cfdocument.currentpagenumber# of #cfdocument.totalpagecount#
</cfif>
</p>
</cfoutput>
produces this output (it's near the top of the page and has other
output below it, so it is definately on page 1):
page BD:CURRENTPAGENUMBER of BD:TOTALPAGECOUNT
I think we have an issue with not being able to determine total pages
until all of them have been rendered in some way. ??

you tried?
You might be able to do headers and footers using css3 which the
Flying Saucer library uses.
@alan, do you know why the cfdocumentitem doesn't allow styling?

That's a significant issue for me. Got about 20 reports I'm
gonna have to redesign.
In the past, we haven't been able to use
cfdocument.currentpagenumber & totalpagecount for comparisons.
(and if I remember correctly, can't use 'em outside of
header/footer). If I could get access to those, I could likely
craft my own headers/footers.
Alternately, could I drop in an iText library and fix
anything? .. (even if I have to pay for it)
That probably breaks with the open source philosophy, but my
customers are less concerned with that than with good-looking
quotes.
ideas?

At this moment, text is the only thing allowed in header /
footer. Its really a limitation of the FlyingSaucer
library that is used. I haven't found a work around yet.

Moving a site onto OBD. W08 Server, 64-bit.
Can't get cfdocumentitem type=header/footer to do
much. (I'm making .pdf's, btw)
It prints the text, but that's about it. ... no
images... no spacing... no fonts, colors or other
styling whatsoever.
It seems to ignore table tags, divs, and paragraph
tags... doesn't want to display an image whether in
image tags or styled as backgrounds ... tried using
style tags and inline styles...
Nothing seems to work. I just get a single,
left-aligned, unstyled line of whatever text I had in
the tables, paragraph tags, etc.
Any voices of experience on this?
Any ideas?
Much Tx,
