Headers & Footers

Add consistent text to the top (header) and bottom (footer) of every page in an export. Useful for company name, document title, confidentiality notices, or any repeated content.

How It Works

Headers and footers are defined per template. When an export uses that template, the text appears on every content page. They do not appear on the cover page.

Configuring a Header

  1. Open a template for editing (Confluence Settings → PDF Exporter)
  2. Toggle Header to enabled
  3. Enter your Header Text
  4. Choose the Position: Left, Center, or Right
  5. Save the template
  1. Open a template for editing
  2. Toggle Footer to enabled
  3. Enter your Footer Text
  4. Choose the Position: Left, Center, or Right
  5. Save the template

Page Numbers

Page numbers are configured separately from the header/footer text but follow the same positioning logic. They can be placed in the header or footer area.

Setting Description
Enabled Toggle page numbers on or off
Format 1 / 1 / 10 / Page 1 of 10
Position Left, Center, Right

Combining header/footer text with page numbers: You can have both a text header and page numbers in the footer, or vice versa — they are configured independently.

Examples

Corporate report:

  • Header: ACME Corp — Confidential
  • Footer: © 2025 ACME Corp
  • Page numbers: Page 1 of 10 (center, footer)

Simple archive:

  • No header
  • Footer: document date or space name
  • Page numbers: 1 (right, footer)

Minimal:

  • Header: off
  • Footer: off
  • Page numbers: off

Notes

  • Header and footer text is plain text — no markdown or HTML is supported
  • The cover page does not include headers, footers, or page numbers
  • Page numbers count from the first content page (cover page is excluded from numbering)
