Thanks Suzanne. That's exactly what I did.

Even though the Footer style may be based on the Header style, that doesn't
guarantee that it's identical. Also, if you pasted text into the footer, you
likely have an extra, empty paragraph. Display nonprinting characters to
help with troubleshooting.

Can anyone tell me why, when I print a page, my footer is 1 cm bigger than
my
header even though the footer is 'based on' the header (achieved in
stylesformatting) AND in page set up the measurements are set the same:

top margin: 2.5 cm
bottom margin: 2.5 cm
Header: 1.25 cm
Footer: 1.25 cm

I'm a bit baffled...
