Set the smaller margin for the pages then create the headers (temporarily
insert a page break to give the two pages). The more you put into the first
page header the more the header space will grow. The subsequent page header
will remain at the smaller size.

I know you probably hear this all the time.... But I went through
that process over and over today in 2007. I create the second page
first with a 1" margin and a performated page number. I also put a
.75" margin on the bottom and a .25" footer with my address on two
lines.
Next I go the the header format and selected different first page
header.
I then insert my logo into the header area and change the margin to
1.5" and keep the header the same size.
Now I go into the letter area and start typing letters and hitting
enter over and over until I get a second page that does not have a
logo just like I want it except that the margin is 1.5". So I change
that second page margin to 1" and it looks great. I go back to the
first page and it looks great except the margin is now 1" too.
So I ended up keeping it this way and add two enters on the first
page and I have my artificial 1.5" margin for the first page. Any
ideas where I failed? I didn't seem to have this problem in the old
Word of XP.
You haven't, I take it, read the section entitled "Creating a header
for preprinted letterhead." This explains how to create the
different margins.

I have read this article and although I can change the header and
footer for the 1st and following pages I cannot automatically
change the margin. If I go to the second page header and change
the margin to 1" it will change the first page too. Is there a way
based on your article in 2007 to make the first page have a 1.5"
margin with a company logo and then automatically create on the
second page a 1" margin and no logo? I can't get one of the two,
but not both. --

Is this possible? I want text to run from first page (with defined
margins/header) to second page (with different
margins/header/footer) without using section breaks.
The reason I dont' want to use section breaks is because if I
copy and paste text from one document to this document it will
recognize it as one piece of information and when it runs of to
another page (or second page) - it will pick up the header and
footer from the first page not the second page, unless there is a
section break manually inserted. I want this to be automatic
without having to insert a section break. Is that possible?
