JasperReports How to add docx footer and header

Question

I need to inject a header and footer to a jasper report in order to edit a document.

I know that Jasper prints tables in a docx including the footer and header causing an static non native document.

Regards!

Answer 1

It was impossible to add native header and footer to a jasper report.

It renders a table per page, if you select all document and enable all boundaries you notice of it.

Maybe you could first create an excel and export your result using docx4j.

There are ASPOSE for Jasperreports but I didn't tried it.
