This function adds a page footer to the report. The page footer will appear on each page of the report, at the bottom of the page. The page footer contains three sections: left, center, and right. Content for each section may be specified with the appropriate parameter.
page_footer(x, left = "", center = "", right = "", blank_row = "above")The report spec object.
The left page footer text. May be a single string or a vector of strings.
The center page footer text. May be a single string or a vector of strings.
The right page footer text. May be a single string or a vector of strings.
Whether to create a blank row above the page footer. Valid values are 'above' and 'none'. Default is 'above'.
The modified report.
Only one page footer is allowed per report. The page footer will appear on all pages of the report. The page footer may contain text on the left, right, or center. Use the appropriate parameters to specify the desired text for each section. Multiple strings may be passed to each section as a vector of strings.
If the width of the page header string exceeds the available space, an error will be generated. In addition, there is a limit of 5 strings for each page footer section.
There are two special tokens to generate page numbers: [pg] and [tpg]. Use [pg] to indicate the current page number. Use [tpg] to indicate the total number of pages in the report. These tokens may be placed anywhere in the page header or page footer.
Use the blank_row parameter to control the blank space above the
page footer.
Each footer string must fit within the available space. The reporter package will not wrap footer. If a footer string does not fit within the available space, an error will be generated. In these situations, either shorten the footer string or split it into multiple footers that each fit within the available space.
