Hi Greg,
I don’t think proper footers (or headers) are supported. Check the Newforma Help topic called “Customize Form Templates Using InfoPath”. There are some useful notes about capabilities and limitations near the bottom of that entry, including this one regarding footers:
Custom header and footer controls from InfoPath are not transformed in the .XSL files used by Project Center. The customized header or footer will not display in the form generated from the .XSL file.
We ran into the same issue and have, for the time being, just removed our typical footer text from our customized forms. Having it display wherever the page ended wasn’t what we wanted to see, plus it sometimes resulted in an extra page being generated that only contained the footer, which also wasn’t desired.
