Hey @elsieahteck,

You can press this button:

A bit of a hacky way is to change it in the html will a parse tool like this:

A formula tool would probably work better to overwrite these values:

Replace([Text], "font-size:12.0pt", "font-size:50.0pt")

 

Any questions or issues please ask :)
HTH!

Hey @elsieahteck,

No worries, you don't have to use a footer tool to create a footer, you can just use the text tool and scale end edit it there:

Oh wow, it worked!

 

Thank you very much IraWatt 😀

 

I have a few more questions:

1. Can we display the header and footer only on the first page of the document?

2. Can the header distance be changed so that it does not align with the text? Please see below

No worries @elsieahteck,

For you second question I would add your test to a layout tool and mess with the padding and height:

Also it may be useful to look at using a custom margin in the render tool:

I'll have to investigate how to only put a footer on the first page, sorry couldnt be more help there
