Fix Page Numbering to not be over other text

Fix the graphical output so the page numbers do not overwrite the text. Page 1 with the Summary Report is fine, however all the other sheets the page number is over top of the File Name. See Example Screen Shots.

    Understood, however, from my very old days of doing graphic design, there is a term called white space of which there is a lot of it at the top of the page of each calculation. One idea would be to move the Weyerhaeuser symbol to the top of the page and that would add a fair bit more room for file names. also the margins on the sides of the sheet are a fair bit wider than the margin at the bottom of the sheet. Also there is a fair bit of white space between the beam figure and the dimensions and the dimension and the note "All Locations are measured...." Basically the top part is real fluffy in spacing of the items and the wording and table section is real compact. Respacing of the top items would provide a lot more space.

    Hi Evan,

    This is happening due to the length of the file name. File names should be shorter to limit the occurrence of this issue. Unfortunately, if we make more room to handle longer file names (then we do currently), we reduce the allowable space for design information, which can result with more pages required for reports.

    Thanks,
