I have a requirement of printing a report in letter format. Rdf is containing two repeating frames.Outer Repeating frame contain layout of letter where as inner repeating frame contain rows of data. Requirement is if rows of data in inner repeating frame is increased and it goes beyond first page it should print "continuation " in bottom of current page.

Can u please suggest what can be done?

There's the SRW built-in package which offers the GET_PAGE_NUM function; it returns the current page number. Unfortunately, there's no function which returns TOTAL number of pages (so that you could compare current page number with it and display a note at the bottom of the page). Therefore, you'll have to write some code yourself.

People usually use a package in order to do that. Have a look at Total Pages discussion. It refers the My Oracle Support document ID 130432.1 and provides code you should study and adjust according to your needs.
