How to Set Headers and Footers in PageMaker

Headers and footers are special areas at the top and bottom of each page and can include information such as the document title, a page number, the name of the author and so on. In PageMaker, headers and footers are added to a master page, so they automatically appear on each page that uses the master. These instructions are for PageMaker 6.0 and 6.5.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

1. Go to the master pages by clicking the master pages icon.
2. Zoom in to enlarge the page view.
3. Go to the area on the page where you want to insert the header or footer.
4. Select the Text tool and click where you want to add the text on the page.
5. Type the header or footer text and format it.
6. Position the header or footer exactly where you want it to appear on the page by using the Pointer tool.
7. Return to the document pages by clicking on one of the document page icons at the bottom of the PageMaker window.

Tips & Warnings

• Use the Document Setup function to configure your PageMaker document for facing pages, and then set up the headers and footers in the Master Pages.
