Thanks - that looks like the best route.

Trying to avoid hacking, and use the tools provided, I'd been looking into making adjustments to the Stylesheets - in particular the Footer one.

I found that simple HTML could be included, such as enclosing a string in <B>…</B> to make it appear in bold print, but then ran into the buffers when I found that HTML code couldn't be used to generate the current date, and that I couldn't readily use server-side code such as Javascript or PHP without putting my gnucash-generated HTML on a server.

I shall study your code fragment, and once I understand what it's doing, I'll see if I get it to work for me.

Regards
