Pdfmake: Footers and headlines on the pdf page

[przemyslaw]

As in the topic, I want to know if there is a possibility of adding a header/footer on each page?

[przemyslaw]

First, basic question: How can I add footer and header in pdf?
I try by passing below code, but didn't work


{
header:
{
text : "valueOfHeader"
},
footer:
{
text: "valueOfFooter"
}
}


Second question: how can i insert page numbers in footer?

Your sample is working fine, just remember to define content as well as it's mandatory.

Alternatively header and footer can be set to a function taking two arguments (currentPage, pageCount)

For a simple case the following piece of code should be enough:

footer: function(page, pages){ return page + ' of ' + pages; },

Remember the function can return any valid node (if a simple text is not enough), so a more complex example could look like this:

footer: function(page, pages) { 
    return { 
        columns: [ 
            'Left part of footer',
            { 
                alignment: 'right',
                text: [
                    { text: page.toString(), italics: true },
                    ' of ',
                    { text: pages.toString(), italics: true }
                ]
            }
        ],
        margin: [10, 0]
    };
},
