The page footer prints immediately above the bottom margin of the report. 
Exactly how high up the page it starts depends on the height of the page footer
band.  It will start at (PageLength - BottomMargin - PageFooterBandHeight).

The report footer will print immediately after the last "other" band (detail or
footer if there are any footers).

Prior versions of R:Base did not work this way -- they would print the page
footer immediately after the data (unless you specified a page footer line
through trial and error) and the report footer would actually appear after the
last page footer.

To my way of thinking, the new version is an enormous improvement over the old
one -- I don't have to explain to people any more why I cannot locate the
report totals immediately under the columns of numbers they are totalling.
