Can someone tell me about formatting of Header and Footer in P6. Default settings are becoming not upto my expectation. Like you can not adjust space beween rows etc..... Its appearance is not good and the schedule prepared looses its glory.
You can not enjoy roasted chicken on banana leaf it has to be in salad decorated dish. It gives appearance and I belive that appearance catches eyes and create impression.
Your thoughts folks

Use Shift enter to move text a single line down, pressing enter by itself does a double space.
Use pictures. Make sure they are small in size (JPEG or PNG) GIFs wont work. You can make a picture of anything you want, even text, and put it in the footer.
Consider only showing the footer on the first page to save space/paper/trees.
Make the report name/project name a larger font or in Italics. It will help explain to people what they are looking at.

It's really a shame that you
It's really a shame that you can do nothing to customize your print outputs with P6. We have 32 project with nearly 40 contractors, with the features of page setup, every time I want to print a schedule I should manually fill the header and footer fields.
I wonder why they have not added some other fields to that really helpful "Add" feature at the bottom of header and footer tab, such as: [total_activities] , [Actual_completed_activities], [project_status], [Actual in-progress activities], [actual not started activities] and some UDFs for data like the name of the contractor and the name of the engineer.
