Insert footer into HTMLtoWML converted document.

[AlexParticipant]

Hello!

I have a document I converted from HTML and I would like to insert a footer. I have the following code to generate the footer:

 private static Footer GeneratePageFooterPart()
        {
            var element =
                new Footer(
                    new Paragraph(
                        new ParagraphProperties(
                            new ParagraphStyleId() { Val = "Footer" }),
                        new Run(
                            new Text("Some footer text"))
                    ));

            return element;
        }

and the following to append it to the document:

wmlDocument.MainDocumentPart.Add(GeneratePageFooterPart());

Though it does not appear to be doing much. I haven’t found any examples of appending a footer to a converted file. Is there some html element that will be converted into a footer I could use or is there some other way?

Thanks!

Hi,

Sorry for the slow response. Have been on vacation.

With regards to footers and headers, there is some good background information that you should know. Take a look at screen-cast #8 in the following series:

Introduction to WordprocessingML

It is fairly complex to create new headers / footers in a document. You have to update the section properties as appropriate, and then navigate to the footer part. You will then find the relevant markup in the footer part.

Cheers!
