How to Create Different Headers and Footers

The process for creating different headers and footers in Word is actually quite simple. All you need to do is insert a section break into your document where you want the header or footer to change, and then make the necessary modifications to the header or footer.

To insert a section break, simply place your cursor where you want the break to occur and then click on the “Insert” tab. From there, click on “Break” and then select “Section Break (Next Page)” from the drop-down menu.

Once you’ve inserted the section break, you can then modify the header or footer for that section by double-clicking on the header or footer area. This will bring up the Header & Footer Tools ribbon, which you can use to make any desired changes.

When you’re finished making changes, simply click on the “Close Header and Footer” button. And that’s all there is to it!

2. In the drop-down menu, select the Edit Header or Edit Footer option.

3. A new window will open up. From here, you can select the different headers and footers you want to use for each section.

4. To save your changes, click on the Close button.

5. Your document will now have different headers and footers for each section.

How to Edit Headers and Footers

There are three ways to edit headers and footers in your document:

1. The Header & Footer Tools tab
2. The Header and Footer pane
3. The Navigation pane

The Header & Footer Tools tab is the recommended way to edit headers and footers because it provides the most options and is the easiest to use. To open the Header & Footer Tools tab, click the Insert tab, and then click the Header or Footer button.

The Header and Footer pane is a simpler way to edit headers and footers, but it doesn’t provide as many options as the Header & Footer Tools tab. To open the Header and Footer pane, click the View tab, and then click the Header and Footer button.

The Navigation pane is the most basic way to edit headers and footers, but it can be useful if you’re familiar with navigating through a document using the headings. To open the Navigation pane, click the View tab, and then click the Navigation Pane button.

Once you’ve opened the Header & Footer Tools tab, the Header and Footer pane, or the Navigation pane, you can edit the headers and footers in your document. To learn more, see the following sections:
