[Tex/LaTex] Text running into footer area!

header-footer

I am trying to create a template for my short reports (3-5 pages). I would like to have a header and a footer on each page.

I have managed the most of it but I am running into an issue and would greatly appreciate a solution to this problem.

I reviewed the previous questions and there was answer to a question ( Text running into footer area when using amsart and fancyhdr)
but when I implement that suggestion, my header disappears.

Here is the code I am using and a screenshot to illustrate the issue.

Thank you,
Jay

enter image description here

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[top=1in, bottom=1in, left=0.5in, right=0.5in]{geometry}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{datetime}

\lhead{ \includegraphics[width=3cm, height=1cm]{logo-img-3}}
\rhead{\begin{Large} faucibus maximus\end{Large}\\    \begin{small}LQuisque ex dui, tincidunt eu metus ut \end{small}}
\fancyfoot[L]{Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur }
\fancyfoot[R]{\today}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0.4pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0.4pt}
\setlength{\headheight}{33pt}

\graphicspath{ {images/} }
\vspace*{5ex}

\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\begin{Huge} Aliquam malesuada ex libero \end{Huge}\\
\end{center}

\vspace{0.5in}
\begin{center}
\begin{Huge} consectetur adipiscing \end{Huge}\\
\end{center}


\clearpage
\begin{tabular}{| c | c | c | c | c | c | r |}
\hline
col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]
\hline \hline
col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]
\hline
col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]

\end{tabular}

\end{document}

Do you want something like this?

sample output

If you use geometry, do not set page layout dimensions manually as it will throw off the calculations. In this case geometry doesn't know you've changed \headheight so it doesn't take any account of it. The problem can be corrected by changing the dimension using geometry's facilities.

Code for above sample:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[top=1in, bottom=1in, left=0.5in, right=0.5in]{geometry}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{datetime}
\lhead{ \includegraphics[width=3cm, height=1cm]{example-image-a}}
\rhead{\Large faucibus maximus\\\small LQuisque ex dui, tincidunt eu metus ut}
\fancyfoot[L]{Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur }
\fancyfoot[R]{\today}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0.4pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0.4pt}
\geometry{headheight=33pt}
\usepackage{kantlipsum}
\begin{document}
\vspace*{5ex}
\begin{center}
  \Huge Aliquam malesuada ex libero
  \vspace{0.5in}

  \Huge consectetur adipiscing
\end{center}
\kant[1-10]
\clearpage
\begin{tabular}{| c | c | c | c | c | c | r |}
  \hline
  col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]
  \hline \hline
  col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]
  \hline
  col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]
  \hline
  col1  & col2 & col3 & col4 & col5 & col6 & col7 \\ [1ex]
  \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
