How to calculate Header Text height of a page programmatically and in general?
i.e.How much text is allowed in the header without expanding Header automatically? -- Message posted via OfficeKB.com http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...ayout/200512/1 |

Header Height
In FilePage Setup, you specify the top margin and a "From edge" value
which determines how far down from the page edge the header should begin. So, assuming that "From edge" is smaller than the top margin, the header height should be the top margin minus the value for "From edge". Note that the header area will grow to accommodate "excess" text. In other words, its height is really dependent on the font, font size, line spacing, and paragraph spacing of the text inside it. This also applies if "From edge" is larger than the value for the top page margin. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ashish via OfficeKB.com" wrote in message news:5935413423250@uwe...

Header Height
As Stefan has pointed out, the header expands automatically with any amount
of text. It expands downward rather than upward, however; the header margin specifies where the top line of the header will be. As a general rule, using Word's default font, Header style, and margins (1" Top and 0.5" Header), you can get two lines of header text before it starts intruding on the document body. Anything more than one line will really be uncomfortably close to the document body. If you want to maintain a specified distance between the header and the text, regardless of the depth of the header, the best plan is to add this amount to the Header style as Space After, which will ensure that the header paragraph will always (if necessary) push the document body down enough to leave this space. If Space After is added to the Header style, make sure to use line breaks rather than paragraph breaks within the header. Otherwise, add the space only to the last line in the header. -- Suzanne S.
