ReportItems in Page Footer

I have several text boxes in the page footer of my report, which reference
various ReportItems. The values are displayed correctly when previewing the
report. However, when I print the report the values are not printed. All of
the other textboxes which contain static information is printing correctly,
so it has something to do with the ReportItems.
Has anyone seen this problem before?Rendering extensions treat report items in the header and footer
differently. The HTML rendering extension seems to have no problem at all
with exposing values in textboxes that somehow reference values in a
dataset. I've had similar problems with PDF rendered reports where the data
showed up in the HTML rendered report but didn't show up in the PDF rendered
version. As a rule, stay away from placing databound data in the header or
footer. You can work around this through diligent use of rectangles and
repeating sections in the body of the report.
