I'm hoping the answer to this question should be obvious, but I'm having no luck with it.
I'm trying to do a layout for a 1-page datasheet. At the very bottom of the page, in some tiny font, I need to put a copyright notice and datasheet ID number.
Ideally I'd like to define some fixed text block containing the text (as its exact size and font have not yet been finalized), and then somehow define the height of the footer to be exactly equal to the height of the text block. Once I've done that, I need to place the text in the footer.
I've been going back and forth through the scattered bits of ConTeXt manual and the wiki, but I'm having no luck in figuring out how one might do this.
