Document Template - Different Header on Page 1 (HTML)

[gregcurtis]

Trying to work out if there is a way with document template scripts to have a different header and footer on page one of a document?

The requirement is for full width header and footer images on page 1 (page number is OK), and then just page numbers on following pages. I'm wondering if this could be done by inserting a page break and using a script on page 1 for the header and footer images?

@gregcurtis Have you tried below :

First Page Header and Footer:

Full-width header and footer images are added using <img> tags with Base64-encoded images ( or any other suitable ways) :

1.

// Create the first page with a full-width header and footer

    var firstPageHeader = '<div style="text-align: center; width: 100%;"><img src="data&colon;image/png;base64,[BASE64_HEADER_IMAGE]" alt="Header" style="width: 100%;"></div>';

    var firstPageFooter = '<div style="text-align: center; width: 100%;"><img src="data&colon;image/png;base64,[BASE64_FOOTER_IMAGE]" alt="Footer" style="width: 100%;"></div>';

    // Set the first page header and footer

    template.setHeader(firstPageHeader);

    template.setFooter(firstPageFooter);

    // Add content for the first page

..........

2.

// Insert a page break

    template.print('<div style="page-break-after: always;"></div>');

3.

// Create headers and footers for subsequent pages

    var subsequentPageHeader = '<div style="text-align: right;">Page ${PAGE}</div>';

    var subsequentPageFooter = '<div style="text-align: center;">Page ${PAGE}</div>';    

    // Set subsequent page header and footer  template.setHeader(subsequentPageHeader);  template.setFooter(subsequentPageFooter);

    // Add content for subsequent pages

......

How this will help you.

Thanks @Abhay Kumar1, but they don't work as Document Template Scripts (sn_doc_template_script) - the scripts just appear as "null" in the document body.

I also tried inserting the script into the source code of the HTML Template but that didn't work either.
