I designed a simple report using Stimulsoft report and put page footer on it, but page footer is not set to bottom of pages. Footer is placed all over the page. As if there was a constant distance between the footer and the last element of the page why?
Here is my report file : https://forum.stimulsoft.com/download/file.php?id=21789

Most likely you use the WebViewer to display the report. You incorrectly placed the text (directly on the page) and when rendering it expands and goes beyond the bottom of the page. But the browser stretches the table to display all the text, and PageFooter is appearing in the middle of the text.
Text that is placed directly on the page is a static object that is repeated on each page. If you want the long text to break into pages - you need to put it on a DataBand.
Please check the modified report template:
