I've got it.
I don't know why the former doesn't work but the following does.
kendo.drawing.drawDOM($("#Grid"), { allPages: true, avoidLinks: true, paperSize: ["1300mm", "200mm"], margin: { top: "2cm", left: "1cm", right: "1cm", bottom: "1cm" }, landscape: true, template: $("#page-template").html() }).then(function (documentgroup) { // Generate PDF file kendo.drawing.pdf.saveAs(documentgroup, fileName); });
I inserted that code in the click handler function, where I was previously calling
$("#breakDetailsGrid").data("kendoGrid").saveAsPDF();
Still tweaking it but at least I have my footer.
Thanks for the help!
