Entry #1: "How do I put more text after the footer?"

Add it on the next page. Hopefully they realized their mistake there?

Sounds like a quick WTF:

Nope. He wanted to add some text onto that page (it wasn't even a full page of text). Under the footer.

That depends on the application, doesn't it?

I think that's the point of the footer...it's the very last thing on the page.

Maybe so, but many times something must be added below the footer even after the originator is dead. I did that relatively frequently some years ago.

So, text after the footer would, in fact, be part of the footer.

Maybe the question is, how do I put a special footer on page x?

You guys are thinking too logically, you clearly aren't my users

Maybe the question is, how do I put a special footer on page x?

Or, it would now become the footer and whatever is before it is now part of the body document.

The issue is that a footer, like a header, repeats on each page. This person just wants a special footer on a particular page; that's easy enough to do in Word using sections.

Sounds more like a footnote than a footer...
