footer doesn't show in exported pdf

Question

Hi, I want to add "confidential" in the footer of the pdf files exported, I took these steps:

Space tools > Look and Feel > PDF layout, and in "PDF Space Export Footer" I put in "confidential". However I don't see the "confidential" at the footer of the exported pdf file. Could anyone help me on this? Thanks a lot!

Hi An,

PDF Space Export Footer, as in, not Export to PDF, but rather under Content Tools > Export > PDF - exporting a space (selection or whole) to PDF.

You can tweak the PDF Style sheet which will affect the Export to PDF. Use something like

@page
{
 position: absolute;
 bottom: 0px;
 width: 123px;
 display: block;
 position: relative;
 margin: auto;
 background-image: url(link-to-image.png);
}

Above is just an example using CSS. A quick google will help you style it how you want

Thanks,

Jared.

This works for me if I click Browse > Space Operations > pdf Export. It doesnt work from the drop-down on the three dot thing on the right of a page. Using Confluence 5.8.4
