How do I make a header appear on only the first page of my document?
Follow these steps:
- Open a new word processing document.
- Enter some or all of the data that you want on your cover (1st) page (or simply hit the return key a few times)
- Choose Format>Styles and Formatting
- Click on the Page Styles icon (fourth one from the left)
- Double-click on the page style called First Page. The page style name should appear on the status bar below your document. It is also possible at this point to create a custom first page style. You may close the Styles and Formatting window now, if desired.
- Choose Insert > Manual Break
- Select the button next to Page Break. Then select the style to use for the next page (pick one from the menu - such as Default).
- Click OK.
- Now you should have two pages. Put your cursor in the first page, then choose Insert > Header > First Page from the pulldown menus.
- A header area will appear on the first page. Choose Insert > Fields to select from popular header items, or type your own header material
