Hello,

When I generate pdf pages, they have too much space below the footer. Is there a way to change that?

The Page Dimensions are set to letter and the margins to 12. Other than too much space at the bottom of the page, they look really good.

Thanks for the help...

Set the margin to 1 and see if it solves the problem.

No, that didn't work.

Here's what the bottom of page 2 and top of page 3 looked like after changing the margins to 1:

Thanks, but that didn't work either. Is there a footer setting I can change?

Did you rebuild the theme after making the change?

Hi,

I changed

$this->PageBreakTrigger = $this->h - $this->bMargin - 20;

to

$this->PageBreakTrigger = $this->h - $this->bMargin - 1;

Now the margins are the same on all sides.

Will setting it to only 1 cause any problems anywhere else?

Thanks for the help!

If you set it to 1 the footer may disappear below the fold of the page. I think 10 is the smallest safest value to use in that area.
