How could I remove Splunk Alert and Generated by Splunk messages from the header and footer of the generated pdf and replace it with a custom one?

answer-b.

I changed $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/pdfserver/bin/pdfhandler.py, and it works fine.

I think this is safer.

It can be changed by modifying the following file :

/opt/splunk/lib/python2.6/site-packages/splunk/appserver/mrsparkle/controllers/report.py
