# Macros

By using different kind of macros, the content and the outlook of the exported document can be enhanced.

## Custom field macros

The custom field macro can be used to put document and/or export specific metadata into the document (also into the cover page).

This metadata can be the following:

* Document title
* Document version
* Page number
* Total page number
* Document created
* Document last modified
* Creator full name
* Creator user name
* Last modifier full name
* Last modifier user name
* Export date

Date fields can be formatted using format strings as described in [Formatting dates](https://docs.meta-inf.hu/content-exporter-confluence/user-guides/export-profiles/headers-and-footers#headersandfooters-formattingdates). The format string can be put into the format input box.

With the page bottom macro a user can place a block of text to the bottom on cover pages (For example information about the author, the publisher, and so on).

To add a Page Bottom Macro, do the following:

1\. In the Confluence editor, choose **Insert** -> **Other Macros**.
