When you insert many dynamically positioned elements in your output, then InterFormNG2 will automatically force a page overflow. This section covers the page overflow in details:

Introduction
If you add a repeat loop, that iterates across many detail lines of your input file (XML or spooled file), then it will automatically force a new output page, when there is no more room on the current page.
A simple repeat loop can e.g. simply print out all the numbers from 1 to 100:
Since the text element is dynamically positioned, the Texts are output below each other, and when there is no more room on the current page, a new output page is generated. This is provided, that the flow direction is vertical.
The output looks like this:
If we also add a header and a footer, then template will look like this:
Before the additional output page is opened for output, the footer will be output to current page - if a footer has been defined for the page element.
If you insert a dynamically positioned container element (or any other dynamically positioned elements) in either the header or the footer, then the height of the header/footer is the combined height of all the dynamically positioned elements. Any design element with a fixed position does not affect the size of the header/footer.
