Space between text and footer

[joachimwolff]

Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for providing such an awesome template! I will use it in my dissertation :)

I have one small issue regarding the space between the text end and the start of the footer; I hope these are the correct terms. I would like to have one, two, or maybe three lines of text more per page, but could not figure out so far how. I found out the usual command should be sth like \usepackage[a4paper, left=2cm, right=2cm, top=2cm, bottom=2cm, includeheadfoot]{geometry}; but I think bottom controls here the space between the footer and the physical end of the page, which is already 0.

I am attaching an image to show the space I mean, just in case it helps to understand better what I am referring to:

Any help is highly appreciated.

Best,

Joachim
