finalPage

Finalpage is a term used in publishing and software to denote the last page of a document, a form, or a paginated sequence. It is not a formal standard, and its exact meaning varies by context.

In traditional printing, the final page is the last sheet in a print run; it may carry a copyright notice, a colophon, or be intentionally left blank for binding. In digital documents, the final page refers to the last page in a paginated view or to a page identified by a finalPage or lastPage property. The concept is commonly used to control navigation, such as disabling a Next control on the final page.

In software development, finalpage can appear as a flag or identifier within pagination logic. Some templating or reporting systems expose a variable named finalPage or lastPage that triggers end-of-document formatting, such as suppressing headers or inserting a summary.

In e-books and web applications, the final page may correspond to the last content section or the end of a chapter, and rendering may vary across devices or platforms. The idea is also important in print-ready workflows to ensure correct page counts, margins, and bindery considerations.
