Footer placement

Specifying footer placement in any barcode or text commands creates a clear area at the bottom of the output page.   The height of the footer area is the minimum size that accommodates all the footer elements.  The content of the original page is scaled down to fit between top of the footer and top of the page (or bottom of the header if present).
