I need to generate a report with a specific block of text at the bottom of one page from .rtf template using Oracle BI Publisher.
I've tried many ways of positioning text in Word and other stuff, but OBIP ignores them all, besides, Oracle doesn't give any access to its support forum to me.

My attempts:

  • splitting template into sections with brakes (continuous one, page break doesn't suit for me) to make a unique footer
  • using shapes/text boxes with aligning/text wrapping/removing 'move with text' tick
  • using footnotes
  • using MS Word fields with ctrl+F9 to make a unique footer like: IF PAGE = 2 "text"
  • passing an XLM model with a tag having HTML code like: position:fixed; bottom:0


Example of what I'd like to see in my report:

... Body text of page №4

Footnote at the bottom of page №4

Body text of page №5 ...

  • Please post the code you're having trouble with. In any event, your issue seems to concern the failure to use a properly-designed template for your project rather than a programming one, per se. – macropod May 30 '22 at 03:29
  • @macropod The problem is not with the code, I just don't see a way of using Footnotes with OBIP. I am using BIPublisherDesktop64 v.12.214 with MS Word 2016. I prepare an .rtf template, load an .xml sample (successfully), preview a report locally (pdf/doc - doesn't matter) and have a problem with Footnote, example is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1L4EZ_H-TkgoUbMJ_deX2dzbA0oWHPh4F/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=116809044616679320376&rtpof=true&sd=true – T1v1 May 30 '22 at 03:39
