How do RUNNING HEADERS & footers work in Word?

0

Here are some helpful tips (mostly volunteered by a previous CEAS author to help others avoid the frustrations she experienced): Create section breaks for each chapter (each part that needs a different running header), then add headers/footers. With your cursor in the section, use the “different first page” option under the “page formatting” menu so the page number can be at the bottom of the first page of the chapter header page. Then use the “delink” toggle button in the header/footer toolbar to separate the new running header in that chapter from the previous section’s (chapter’s) running header. Word’s default is for each header/footer to duplicate the previous header/footer.
