Using php to generate an RTF file but having a footer

[Superted]

Hello,

 

Please excuse my 'newb'-ness, i have attempted to search these forums but searching the string "rtf" doesn't bring up much apart from a lot of people writing the word portfoilo. I have also spent many hours googling and not come up with anything which fully works...yet.

 

Basically what I'm attempting to do, using php is generate a word document which contains varibles which are populated by a MySQL database.

I've tried a number of ways thus far but the below method has been the closest.

 

The word document is basically a letter with a picture at the top, then the addresses, then a mini introduction, a small table and then the end signature.

I've acomplished this using;

header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=letter.doc");

Then writing the 'letter' in html with all the < b>'s and < u>'s and a couple < hr>'s

 

So, so far so good. All is well, the only thing which i haven't been able to do is populate the footer of the document. This being the very bottom of each page when the document is printed. I want to enter an address into the footer but i'm unable to faverm out how this can be done using the doc content-disposition method.

 

Thankyou for any advice given.

I can post snippets of my current code if anyone requires it.

 

Kind regards

Superted
