my template is 2 pages, so i have a page break - this may be the issue.

symptoms: 2 fields in header, first field displays 1 time on each of the 2 pages, perfect! 2nd field displays twice on the first page (first instance overlaps the first field - no regard to my Y-coordinate of '5'), but the second fields displays only once on the second page, and in the correct Y position.

don't make fun about FoxPro - this project is converting out-of FoxPro, but IDs need to carry over as part of data migration.

I'm having the same issue. My view is also limited to one node based on it's contextual filter, so not sure how it's printing double.

Edit: I figured it out. It only happens when setting "relative to header/footer" in the field position settings. I chose "Page" instead, and subtracted the difference from the X & Y coordinates. Still an interesting issue however.

@NWOM

there are several work-arounds here, you could do as you suggested or you could do what I did, Rewrite results, combining the 2 fields into a single field and then displaying that single field in the header.

my issue with using field position relative to page is that my margins were set to default of 15, and my template had content there, so i had to put this in the header section OR adjust my margins. I had already set about 85 fields positioning and didn't want to have to redo most of that (necessary if margins change).
