multiple text boxes
I've added a very poor example at the bottom of this post.
The header is denoted by *** The first text box is denoted by ---- The second text box is denoted by === I am trying to make a template with two text boxes that can expand as needed, pushing whatever is below them down the page or onto the next page(s). The header is a static size. The first text box that takes up the width of the page. It needs to be able to expand down as lines of text are added and push everything underneath it down. That works, until I add the second text box. The second text box needs two equally sized columns, totalling the width of the page. The columns hold info that would work well for a table, except that I can't rely on template users to add or remove cells as needed. I have about 5 different "groups" (eg, APPLICANTS, EMPLOYEES, etc). One or more will be used and there will be one or more entries under each one that is used. Unused "groups" must be deleted from the template (or at least not printed), but all must initially appear in the template so users can choose which to use. Again, the trick is getting the 1st and 2nd text boxes to expand vertically to push everything below them onto the next page(s). Finally, I need a footer, but only on the last page of the document. No idea how to get a footer on only one page. Any/all help is greatly appreciated. Here's my example. ***************** HEADER INFORMATION ***************** --------------------------------------------- TODAY's DATE: fill in today's date TOPIC : fill in topic (needs to expand with other possible entries) ---------------------------------------------- ========================================= APPLICANTS: Name: John Doe Brief bio - John Doe attended Address: 123 Smart S.
