<para>
The <sgmltag>TFoot</sgmltag> wrapper identifies the <sgmltag>Row</sgmltag>s of a
table that form the foot of the table, as distinct from the header
(<sgmltag>THead</sgmltag>) and body (<sgmltag>TBody</sgmltag>) rows.
</para>
<para>
Footer rows are always rendered at the end of the table, despite thier
logical placement near the beginning.

<refsect2 id="dbreproc.tfoot"><title>Processing expectations</title>
<para>
&calssemantics; Footer rows are often presented in an alternate typographic
style, such as boldface.
</para>
<para>
In paged media, if a table spans across multiple pages, footer
rows are printed on the bottom of each page.
</para>
<para>
In our experience, relatively few formatters handle footer rows
correctly.
