Headers and Footers Video

This video explains how to use headers and footers in Academic Reports to display system-generated data (such as student details) and user-defined elements for customised text. It covers enabling headers and footers through runtime options in TASS.web, adjusting their appearance via the stylesheet, resizing and repositioning logos, and adding user-definable text like school mottos. The session also demonstrates practical examples of modifying labels, styling text, and regenerating reports to reflect changes.
