    No it´s not Prince XML. The print design is solely based on the "Document Style" stylesheet. Aras official samples don´t cover much of the daily common use cases. So you literally have to start from the scratch.

    I don´t want to share my complete stylesheet cause I spend 3 month for perfection. But as far as I see, I used the classic "page" section properties to style the header and footer when printing:

    @page {
    size:A4 portrait;

    @bottom {
      content: "Copyright © PLM Underground" ;
      font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
      color: red;
    }

    @bottom-right {
      content: "Page " counter(page) " of " counter(pages);
      font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
    }

    }

    Thanks Angela.  That put me on the right highway at least.  The documentation is pretty abysmal for this solution.
