cfdocumentitem

The code I have is producing a pdf file. The problem is formatting. <cfdocumentitem type="footer">   <p align="right">#cfdocument.currentpagenumber# of #cfdocument.totalpagecount#</p> </cfdocumentitem> This works although the font size doesn't seem to match anything else on the page. <cfdocumentitem type="header">       <div align="center"><font size="18">Indiana University Insurance Portfolio</div>       <div align="center"><font size="12">#DateFormat(Now(),"mm/dd/yyyy")#</font></div>       <table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" width="100%">         <tr>           <td width="3%"><font size="14">FY</font></td>           <td width="23%"><font size="14">Coverage</font></td><!--- Coverage --->           <td width="9%"><font size="14">Coverage Amount</font></td>           <td width="6%"><font size="14">Insurance</font></td>           <td width="4%"><font size="14">Fund</font></td>           <td width="6%"><font size="14">Premium</font></td>           <td><font size="14">Company</font></td>           <td><font size="14">Agent</font></td>           <td><font size="14">Paid</font></td>         </tr>         <tr>           <td><font size="14"> </font></td>           <td><font size="14"> </font></td><!--- CoverageDescrip --->           <td><font size="14"><i>Group</i></font></td>           <td><font size="14">Deductible</font></td>           <td><font size="14">Deductible</font></td>           <td><font size="14"><i>Policy Num</i></font></td>           <td><font size="14"><i>Dates</i></font></td>         </tr>       </table>     </cfdocumentitem> This is a mess. No matter how I try to set the font size (as shown or +X, pointsize, by class) it somes out from pinhead size to just barely readable. All the width statements are trying to match up the header elements with the body elements. In the body, the only formatting that seems to work is <font size="-2"> which makes it approximately the right size. Classes don't seem to work. Using CF8. Is it just me or is this resource flawed?

Classes do work, but your styles must be embedded within the CFDOCUMENT tag (not referenced using a link) and they must also be embedded within every CFDOCUMENTITEM where you want them to apply. All that said, formatting can still be difficult with CFDOCUMENT.
