Create table in docx document footer with Apache POI:

    XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy policy = document.getHeaderFooterPolicy();
    if (policy == null)
      policy = document.createHeaderFooterPolicy();

    XWPFHeaderFooter footer = policy.createFooter(XWPFHeaderFooterPolicy.DEFAULT);

    XWPFParagraph p = footer.createParagraph();
    p.createRun().setText("My First Footer");

    XWPFTable t = footer.createTable(1, 3);
    XWPFTableRow r = t.getRow(0);
    r.createCell().setText("Uno");
    r.createCell().setText("Dos");
    r.createCell().setText("Tres");
