Headers and Footers
What to do when adding a header or footer in Microsoft Word and do
not want it on the first page of the document:
- The first thing that you do is write the paper and then add your
headers and footers.
- Once you are ready to add you go to the top page and go click on you
View button then go to the Header/Footer option and click on that.
- Once your format bar comes up you will then need to work on the
formatting that you would like to use.
- Since you are on the first page of the document and you do not want
anything on this page you will need to go to the Page Setup button:
- Once you have clicked on the Page Setup button you will then see the
Page Setup box pop up with several tab choices. Make sure that
you are in the Layout section of this box.
- Then all you must do is put a check in the box that says Different
first page and click the ok button.
At this point you are ready to either leave the first page header or
footer blank or put in a different one then the other pages.
- Once you are ready to do the common header/footer all you have to do
is go to the second page and click on the Header and Footer option
just like you did on the first page, but this time you just start
typing instead of formatting.
- REMEMBER always read your screen and you will be fine!
