Select Custom Watermark (at the bottom of the shortcut menu).Īll sections (odd/even, and first page) had this watermark applied to them at once.Ĭ was very happy and so was I, as it ended up being such a simple solution.Click the Watermark button in the Page Background group.First, I got C to delete all watermarks she’d just added (otherwise she would get two different watermarks on some pages), then I got her to do this: To start the page numbering count on the second page, on the Design tab click Page. On the Design tab, check Different First Page. Click Top of Page, Bottom of Page or Page Margins to select a location for the numbering and select a numbering format from the gallery. However, I found what did work and that was to set a custom watermark. Click the Insert tab and in the Header & Footer section click Page Number. Divide the document into different sections using Section break to achieve this. I suggested she start at the end of the document and work her way back to the beginning, but that didn’t work either. MS Word provides an option to create different headers and footers within the same document. Without investigating too closely, I suspected that a combination of odd/even pages, different first page, and Same as previous settings for the headers were at play here. This document had several sections, and each section is set for odd/even pages and a different first page for the cover page. She could add it successfully to the cover page, but as soon as she tried to add it to the even page section or the odd page section, whatever she’d added previously disappeared. Similarly, insert a continuous section break in the. Now you can insert a different header on this page. Then double click the header area of the second page, uncheck Link to Previous in Design ( Header & Footer Tools) tab. It will insert page number at the top-right corner of the page. Choose Top of Page position and from its submenu, select the required style from the list. This is the button in the bottom right corner of the Page Setup group. Then in the Page Setup group, click on the Page Setup Dialog Box launcher. As soon as I added content only the header row stayed in the first page and all other rows jumped to the next page. Navigate to the Insert tab and from Page Number drop-down list, you will see a list of positions, i.e, Top, Bottom, Page margin, and Current position. Question: In Word 2010, how do I create a header that is different for the first page of the document Answer: Select the Page Layout tab in the toolbar at the top of the screen. When I started with a new table the header did appear on other pages. Click Layout Breaks Continuous to insert a section break. I was struggling invain to repeat the header on subsequent pages in a Word doc. My colleague, C, was trying to add a DRAFT watermark to her Word 2007 document. Put your cursor in the end of the first page.
