Define First Page Header/footer In Word 2011 For Mac Free

It took me quite a while to find the corresponding options in Word 2011 to make the first page header/footer behave differently than the others. But I found it at the end by sheer luck after having it circumvented through another option. And no, there’s no ribbon bar option like in Word 2010 😉 In the Menubar go to: Format - Document There select the Layout tab. Select Different first page. That’s all folks! П˜‰ Update It’s even easier: When you double-click to edit the header, the header/footer ribbon appears.

And there you can make the same choice as above by selecting Different first page. I had the same problem described by Sarah above to add to your comment, I found that I couldn’t insert page numbers on the first page footer, otherwise it would blow out the suppressed first page header. Instead, I went to the edit first page footer (I used the “edit footer” button that I dragged to my toolbar) and simply put in the number 1 on the first page, which allowed me to suppress the first page header but still have a page 1 on the document as well, with the header and footer for the following pages remaining intact. Some people have been successful in having the header show up on the first page only after experimenting.

When I check “different first page” it deletes the header/letterhead completely on the first, second. So please those who did figure it out: could you please give EXACT instructions how to save a template where the letter head (header) only shows for the first page and not for successive pages? If that is impossible how does one get rid of the header from the pages that follow the letterhead? (using a template).
