Hi Alex,

Adjusting the height of a footer in MS Word is actually quite simple. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Double-click on the footer area to open the footer section.
2. Once you're in the footer section, you should see a dashed blue line that defines the space allocated to the footer. Click on this line to select it.
3. Once the line is selected, you can drag it up or down to adjust the height of the footer. As you drag the line, you'll see the height measurement change in the vertical ruler on the left-hand side of the screen.
4. Once you've adjusted the height to your liking, you can start typing in the footer area to add text.

If you find that dragging the blue line isn't working for you, you can also adjust the footer height using the Page Setup dialog box. Here's how:

1. Click on the Page Layout tab in the ribbon.
2. Click on the small arrow in the bottom right corner of the Page Setup group to open the Page Setup dialog box.
3. In the Page Setup dialog box, click on the Layout tab.
4. Under the Headers and Footers section, you'll see options for setting the distance from the edge of the paper to the header and footer. You can adjust these values to increase or decrease the height of the footer.
5. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog box.
