Tips for setting headers and footers in Word documents

Tips for setting headers and footers in Word documents

Category: sea sky

I often encounter typographical problems in my work. Now I want to resolve the problem in the form of a question and answer, hoping to help you. The answer may not be accurate enough, but it can achieve the goal. The answer may be a bit wordy, but it is also for everyone to understand. Please forgive me for these shortcomings.

1. How to set the header and footer?
"View" → "header and footer" will open the edit Toolbar of the header and footer, and switch to the edit header status. You only need to enter the content in the corresponding area.
2. What is a "subscriber" and how to set it??
The "subscriber" is to take the document from the inserted subscriber into two sections. You can separately set the page and format of each section.
Setting Method: "insert" → "separator". Select "next page" in "shard type" to insert the delimiter at the specified position.
3. There is a cover with a body in the document, and there is no need to set the page number of the header and the body. How can this problem be solved?
① Insert a "subscriber" at the end of the cover to split the cover and the body: move the cursor to the place where you want to insert the subscriber, "insert" → "separator" → "subscriber type" "next page ";
② Edit the page number of the header: "View" → "header and footer", enter the content of the header and insert the page number. At this time, both the cover and the text will have the header and page number;
③ Cancel the "same as the previous section" settings of each section to write each section separately: Adjust the cursor to section 2nd (that is, the section where the body is located) in the header, click "Same as before" on the toolbar of the header and footer editing. In this way, the settings of "Same as last section" are canceled, so that the two headers can be set separately (because the default setting is "Same as before "), otherwise, no matter which section is modified, the other section will be changed. Similarly, the footer will also be processed.
④ Cancel the cover header text: move the cursor to the header of section 1st and delete the header text. The default underline will also exist. Just cancel the page number;
⑤ Delete the underline in the header: select all the headers (note that you must also mark the paragraphs. You can also press the left mouse button.) "format" → "border and shading" → "border" → "NONE ", note that the "Application Scope" in the lower-right corner of the dialog box should be a "section", and click "OK" to cancel the underline;
6. Set the page number in the header or footer of the body: If the page number is inserted directly, the cover page is used as the 1st page, which is arranged in the lower order. In this case, select the page number, click "set page number format"> "page number Arrangement"> "start page number" in the toolbar of the page header and footer editing, and enter the corresponding number. (The number of pages to start)
In this way, the cover has no header or page number. Of course ~ ③ Do not change the order. The subsequent items can be reversed. To put it another way, you can repeat these settings for documents with chapters or multiple covers to achieve different headers and different page numbers for each chapter.
4. When formatting documents with tables, the edited tables are always disrupted. What should I do?
To prevent the edited table from being disrupted due to format changes, insert a "pagination character" before and after the table to ensure that the table is not disrupted regardless of the layout: "insert" → "separator" → "Separator Type" → "pagination character ".
5. What should I do if I suddenly need a page in the vertical document?
On the front page of the page that needs to be arranged, set two "sub-section characters" respectively. Then, set the page on this page and select "horizontal" for the layout.
6. What is the difference between "subscriber" and "pagination?
These two types of operators can be used to separate pages on the page. Sometimes it looks the same and it is difficult to distinguish between them. In fact, the main difference is that different pages, headers, footers, and page numbers can be set for each section separated by a "subscriber", while page breaks cannot.
7. A document has multiple chapters, each of which has a different cover. At the same time, there are many tables in the document, which have a horizontal layout and a vertical layout, but each section must have different headers and page numbers.No page number is displayed on the cover of each chapter, and a uniform header is provided for binding regardless of the vertical layout. What operations do I need?
① Insert a "subscriber" and divide the document into several sections: After the cursor is adjusted to the last character of each chapter, Chapter cover, and layout in different directions, "insert" → "separator" → "subscriber type" next page ", repeat the operation;
② Cancel the "same previous section" setting for each section: Adjust the cursor to the header, and click "same Front" on the toolbar for editing the header and footer to cancel the "same previous section" setting, in this way, the header and footer of each section are set separately without changing the content of other sections. The footer is also processed.
③ Edit the page number of the header: Enter the content of the header and insert the page number at the corresponding position;
④ Cancel the cover header text: move the cursor to the cover header and delete the header text. The default underline will also exist. Just cancel the page number;
⑤ Delete the underline in the header: select all the headers to be canceled (note that you must also mark the paragraph. You can also press the left mouse button.) "format" → "border and shading" → "border" → "NONE ", note that the "Application Scope" in the lower-right corner of the dialog box should be a "section", and click "OK" to cancel the underline;
6. Set the page number in the body header or footer: If the page number is inserted directly, the cover page is also sorted. In this case, select the page number, click "set page number format"> "page number Arrangement"> "start page number" in the toolbar of the page header and footer editing, and enter the corresponding number. (The number of pages to start)
7. re-edit the headers and footers of pages in different directions: by default, the horizontal pages in the vertical document are in the long side, while the vertical pages are in the short side, which requires adjustments.
A. Cancel the header and footer on the horizontal page. For details, see ④ and ⑤;
B. Insert a text box in the header: Adjust the cursor to the header, "insert"> "text box"> "vertical bar", press the left mouse button, and change the cursor to "+, draw a text box, enter the text, and select the text and paragraph tags, "format" → "border and shading" → "border" → "Custom ", select "line type", "color", "width", select the Bottom Frame in "preview", and "OK ";
C. Adjust the text direction: select the text in the header text box, and select "format"> "text direction" to adjust the text direction;
D. Page number setting: perform the same operation on the page number, but the page number is inserted in the text box;
E. Cancel the box line of the text box: hover the mouse over the border of the text box. When the cursor changes to a cross arrow, double-click the left mouse button to display the "set text box format" dialog box, set "line" to "NONE" to remove the outer line of the text box.
F. Place the text box on the page header to the corresponding position. When the cursor height is the cross arrow, press the left button to move it to the corresponding position.
Once a layout is set, you can use the paste function to copy the same layout.
After the above operations, the goal can be achieved.
