2 Lines on Header or Footer

Karen

Is there any way to add 2 rows of info to a footer in Visio 2003? I want the
center to be one footer on top of the other. Is this possible?
Thank you in advance, Karen

I don’t think this is possible with Visio 2003 or at least I have never
seen it done. However as a workaround why not insert a text box and assign it
to a special layer. You can set the layer’s properties to hidden but allow it
to print. The text box should allow you to enter text on different lines and
change the alignment.

If your page and the printer page are the same size, use a background page.
H&Fs are quite limited when compared to background pages.

Trivia time: H&Fs were aded to Visio to address a specific problem. The
ability to print a Visio page that spans multiple physical pages so that
each physical page has unique identifying features (titles, dates and page
numbers)

So was I able to convince you to use the black magic of the background
pages?
