different page 2 header - WORD 2007, different size also
WORD 2007 specific problem: Have an image, our company logo, with text boxes
beside it (name and address). This goes on page 1 of a letter. Page 2 header SHOULD say only Recipient name (next line) Date (next line) Page 2 of X, line space, then the body of the letter outside of the header. This page 2 and subsequent headers are much smaller than the logo header. This worked before 07. I have clicked "Dif. 1st page". The size of page 2 header then matches page 1 (much too big) or Page 1 headers disappear altogether, or become small to match Page 2. If I manage to set this up, Page 3 does not work properly (should match page 2 and say Page 3 of x). Please help step by step! I was very familiar w previous WORD, so know how to fiddle, but can't make this work! I do not know what program the logo was created in - and cannot find out - a graphic artist did it and emailed it to my boss. |

different page 2 header - WORD 2007, different size also
In addition to "Different first page," are you also using the "Different odd
and even" option? Is this a document with more than one section? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "cariskeith" wrote in message ...

different page 2 header - WORD 2007, different size also
Am NOT checking diff. odd/even. This would be a letter (law firm) of
different lengths - could be 1, 2, 3 or more pages, but no sections. There are several problems: 1. I cannot adjust the size of the header/footer space by dragging on the blue line like in old WORD. 2. The graphic is not going into the letterhead - by this I mean when I cut and paste it, it LOOKS like it is a letterhead, but it is actually NOT - if I SELECT ALL of the letter text, for ex., the letterhead disappears. This does not happen with a true header. 3. The second page letterhead issue already discribed - also I cannot adjust the blue line to change the size. If I change the size in the toolbar box to, say, 2", ALL headers (page 1 and 2 and 3) change to 2". Thanks!

different page 2 header - WORD 2007, different size also
You really need to put the letterhead in the First Page Header and assure
that your top margin is what you want it to be for the second and subsequent pages. See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm for more. -- Suzanne S.

different page 2 header - WORD 2007, different size also
2007 is different. Your excellent article applies to older Word. For one thing, the depth of header 1 and header page 2 won't separate themselves: each wants to be the same depth. I have Dif First Page checked; I have unlinked to previous; I do not have diff. odd and even (bec. pages2,3,4, etc. need to be the same). In the TEXT of the letter: If I change the margins the letterhead changes also; If I put a Continuous Section break at the BEGINNING of the TEXT outside the header, problems arise with spacing the letter. aaargh!

different page 2 header - WORD 2007, different size also
You cannot set different Top or Header margins for the first and subsequent
pages. Instead (as the article explains), you force a larger margin on the first page by adding to the size of the header itself (not the header margin but the actual header content). This can be done with empty paragraphs or Spacing After. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "cariskeith" wrote in message ... 2007 is different.
