Sometimes you’ve got to make longer documents—such as business reports, school papers, and book-length materials. Microsoft Word headers, footers, and page numbers organize the document and make it easier for your readers to navigate.

Envato Elements has thousands of Microsoft Word templates available for unlimited downloads.

Here are a few good reasons to use Microsoft Word headers, footers, and page numbers:

Find a page in the document. Imagine trying to find a specific passage in a 250-page document without page numbers! Microsoft Word page numbers update automatically as you add or delete pages. Plus, they’re easy to work with. You’ve got no excuse for not using this useful feature.
Identify what you’re reading. Headers and footers also help the reader situate themselves in the document. For example, a glance at the footer can remind them that they’re reading Chapter 16 of The Greatest Novel Ever Written.
Brand the document. Branding is another reason to use headers and footers. Add your organization’s name and logo. And, if you export your Word Doc into a PDF, you can even make the headers and footers clickable (or hyperlinked) to your website.

Insert Microsoft Word headers, footers, and page numbers in your document or start with a Microsoft Word template that includes pre-formatted headers, footers, and page numbers. Envato Elements and GraphicRiver are great sources of templates for Microsoft Word.

In this article, you’ll learn how to work with headers, footers, and page numbers in Microsoft Word. So, you and your readers can reap all their benefits. Let’s get started!

Note: I’m on Microsoft Word for Mac version 16.33. The steps may differ slightly depending on what version of Microsoft Word you’re using.

Page numbers are a common element to include in either the header or footer of your document. To learn how to number pages in Microsoft Word, follow these instructions:

1. How to Insert Page Numbers to a Header or Footer in Word

With the header or footer open, click Insert > Page Numbers ….

Microsoft Word Insert>Page Numbers

The Page Numbers dialog opens:

Choose page number settings

Select the settings you want to use. Decide on the page number’s position and alignment.

There’s also a radio button to Show number on first page. By default, this button is unchecked. This means the first page of your document can be its cover, and the page number won’t be displayed on it. If you want the page number to appear on the first page, check this button.

From here, you can also change the format of the page numbers. With the Header & Footer tab open, click Page Number > Format Page Numbers ….

How to number pages on Microsoft Word

This opens the page numbering format box, where you can make other settings:

Number format allows you to choose from Roman numerals or Arabic numerals or letters

After making your settings, click OK to apply.

Click Insert > Page Numbers ….

Microsoft Word page numbers

The Page Numbers dialog opens. Uncheck the Show number on first page radio button.

Click OK.

3. How to Number Odd and Even Pages Differently

By default, headers and footers appear the same way on odd and even pages, like this:

In Microsoft Word you can have different headers or footers for left and right pages.

But sometimes, you may want odd and even pages to appear differently. An example is in the case of books or magazines, where you want the page number to be on the outer edge of the spread when the (printed) document is open.

This is possible in Microsoft Word, where you can format headers, footers, and page numbers differently on odd and even pages.

To do this, double-click inside the header or footer. This opens the Header & Footer ribbon. Check the button for Different Odd & Even Pages.

Use Microsoft Word check boxes to set up different headers or footers.

Edit your odd and even headers/footers separately. When you’re done, double-click outside the header/footer to close.

Now, the positions of the logo and page numbers are different for odd and even pages on my document:

Note that the odd page footer is different than the even page footer.

4. How to Add Different Numbers and Formats to Different Sections

You can also use different page numbers and formats for different sections of your document. For example, in my document I want the page numbers in the Introduction section to be Roman numerals.

First, make sure you’ve broken your document into sections.

To define a new section, place the cursor where you want a new section to begin. Then, click Insert > Break > Section Break. Choose whether you want the section to begin on the next page, continue on the same page as the previous section, or begin on either an odd or even page.

Use section breaks to determine where a section begins

In this example, I inserted section breaks before and after the Introduction to make it a separate section from the rest of my document.

To double check if you’ve inserted section breaks where you want them, click on the Show/Hide Paragraph button on the ribbon. This displays how your document into paragraphs as well as sections.

Show/Hide paragraph breaks

Now, you’re ready to format the page numbers in a specific section.

Double-click in the footer part of the page to open the Header & Footer view. Click inside the footer you want to format.

On the Header & Footer ribbon, click Page Number > Format Page Numbers.

Format page numbers in a document section

Change the format to the settings you wish to use.

Change MS Word format settings

Click OK.

5. How to Control Page Numbers Using Fields

So far, we’ve been using Microsoft Word’s built-in formats for page numbers. For more control over how the page numbers display, use fields.

Double-click on the top or bottom of page to open the Header & Footer view. In the header or footer, place the cursor where you want to insert the page number.

From the Header & Footer ribbon, click on the Field button.

Use a Field to set up a page number

The Field dialog box opens. To add a page number, scroll down Categories, and select Numbering. Then, under Field names, select Page.

Define the page number settings for the field

Click Options to change the number formatting. Make the selections you want to use, then click OK.

6. How to Fix Broken Page Numbers

Sometimes as the document gets larger and new pages and sections are added, page numbering can break. Below are two common page number errors and how to fix them.

Example 1: Page number starts over at 1 in the middle of the document

This can happen when you’ve defined a section, formatted its page number to restart at 1, then inserted a section break again.

Solution:

Examine the section breaks in your document by clicking on the Show/Hide Paragraph button.

Section breaks can help you troubleshoot your document

Check how the page numbers are formatted in the section, and make sure to uncheck Start at:___.

How to fix broken page numbers in Microsoft Word

Example 2: Word is counting the cover page as page 1

The first page of the document is usually the cover page as well. Naturally, we don’t want it to be included in the page count. But what if your document does? Here’s one way to fix that.

Solution:

Insert a section break after the cover: click Insert > Break > Section break. Select one of the options that appear.

Inserting a section break

Check the button for Different First Page.

Setting up a different first page

On the page where you want the page count to begin, go to Page Number > Format Page Numbers. Check the radio button for Start at:___. Type the page number that you want the page count to begin at.

Restart page number in Microsoft Word

Work With Templates With Header and Footer Designs for Microsoft Word

If you’d rather not make any design and formatting decisions, the easiest thing to do is to start with a Microsoft Word template. A good template comes with header, footer, and page numbers all pre-formatted. These will automatically update as you add or remove pages.

Select a Word template like this e-book template for Microsoft Word that I found in Envato Elements.

Good Microsoft Word templates like this one from Envato Elements have pre-formatted headers and footers.

If you want to edit the header, footer, or page number, click into the header/footer to open it. Make the changes you want to make following the relevant steps above.

You can change the template header or footer

When you’re done, double-click outside the header/footer to close it.

Work With Other Header Options and Change Designs

Microsoft Word headers and footers also come with built-in designs for you to choose from.

To select one, click in the header or footer. Click the Header or Footer button on the ribbon. Scroll down to see all the available options. Choose a design from the selections that appear.

Note: This will override any header or footer and page number settings you’ve already made.

Use Microsoft Word Header, Footer, and Page Numbers to Give Readers a Good Experience

By following the steps in this article, even beginning users of Microsoft Word can add headers, footers, and page numbers in their documents. Or, if you’d rather not worry about formatting these page elements, use a Microsoft Word template instead of starting from scratch.

Envato Elements is a wonderful source of professionally designed Microsoft Word templates. Your subscription includes unlimited downloads of everything you need to produce a high-caliber document, from custom fonts to stock photos.

To get templates a la carte, then GraphicRiver is another source of great Microsoft Word templates for you to explore.

You can also make the most of headers and footers to brand the document. Add your logo and organization name, as well as the author’s name, to increase brand recognition and establish your thought leadership.

Headers and footers are useful for adding things such as page numbers, dates, file names, and disclaimers to documents. Word allows you to add headers and footers with built-in, ready-made layouts or add your own custom headers and footers.

NOTE: We used Word 2013 to illustrate this feature.

To add a header or footer, click the “Insert” tab.

For this example, we’ll start with adding a header, so, in the “Header & Footer” section of the “Insert” tab, click “Header.”

A list of built-in header layouts display on the drop-down menu. Scroll down for additional layouts and select a ready-made header layout from the list.

The pre-defined layout is inserted into the header, which is marked by a dashed line and a “Header” tag.

Most ready-made headers contain some placeholder text. In the ready-made header we chose, the document title from the advanced properties was inserted into our header. You can keep the placeholder text or replace it with your own text.

Notice that the text in the main body of your document is grayed out. You cannot edit the text in the body of the document while you are editing the header or footer. When we’re done editing the header and footer, we’ll show you how to go back to editing your document.

Notice, also, that an extra tab displays when you are editing your header. A “Design” tab is added at the right end of the ribbon tab bar with a heading of “Header & Footer Tools” above the tab.

NOTE: You may not be able to see the full “Header & Footer Tools” heading above the “Design” tab, depending on the current width of the Word window.

Once you’ve set up your header, you can easily jump to the footer to set it up. To do this, click “Go to Footer” in the “Navigation” section of the “Design” tab under the “Header & Footer Tools.”

You can insert items such as page numbers in your footer using the “Page Number” button in the “Header & Footer” section of the “Design” tab under the “Header & Footer Tools” heading. If you want to insert a ready-made, or built-in, footer, use the “Footer” button above the “Page Number” button to access a list of pre-defined footer layouts, similar to the list available for the header.

When you’re finished setting up your header and footer, you can go back to editing your document by clicking the “Close Header and Footer” button in the “Close” section of the header and footer “Design” tab. You can also double-click on the grayed out text in the main body of the document to return to editing it.

NOTE: If you use the “Close Header and Footer” button, you are returned to where you left off. However, if you double-click on the body text of your document to return to editing it, you are returned to the beginning of your document.

If you want to insert an empty header so you can add your own text or images to it without having to remove placeholder text, click the “Header” button in the “Header & Footer” section of the “Insert” tab and select “Edit Header” from the drop-down menu.

NOTE: You can do the same thing for the footer using the “Footer” button.

Now, you can add your own text and/or images to your header.

Format the text or images however you like, such as centering the line or making the text bold and applying a bigger font.

We made the text in our header bigger than the text in the body of the document, bold, and we added a line below the paragraph. Again, click the “Close Header and Footer” button in the “Close” section of the header and footer “Design” tab to go back to editing your document, or double-click on the grayed-out text in your document.

Headers and footers can be different for odd and even pages. To make different headers and footers for odd and even numbered pages, click the “Different Odd & Even Pages” check box in the “Options” section of the “Design” tab under the “Header & Footer Tools” heading so there is a check mark in the box. The “Header” tag under the dashed line in the header section becomes either “Odd Page Header” or “Even Page Header,” depending on which page you are currently on in your document. Use the “Previous” and “Next” buttons in the “Navigation” section of the “Design” tab to jump between the odd and even headers or footers.

NOTE: The “Different Odd & Even Pages” option is a document-level setting. You can only apply it to the entire document. So, if you turn on the option and your header and/or footer in one or more sections is the same on both odd and even pages, you’ll have to insert the same text twice for each section

When inserting page numbers into the header or footer, you can omit the page number from the first page of your document and start a new section with an odd page number. You can also create multiple headers and footers in a single document.

Add a premade header or footer in Word

Because the process is the same for both headers and footers, you can follow these same steps to add either one or both to your document.

Word provides premade headers and footers that give you a layout such as columns or a banded strip. You can then use the suggested details or add your own.

Step 1: Go to the Insert tab and head to the Header and footer section of the ribbon.

Step 2: Open the Header or Footer drop-down menu and pick the layout you want. You’ll notice some layouts have preset details like document title or page number.

Step 3: After you select the layout, you’ll see the header or footer open automatically. Enter the details into the highlighted text area.

Step 4: When you finish customizing one or both locations, pick Close header and footer in the ribbon or double-click a spot outside of the header or footer area in your document.

Add a blank header or footer

You don’t have to start with a premade layout for your header or footer. You can simply open one or the other and enter the details you want.

Step 1: Go to the very top of your document for a header or very bottom for a footer.

Step 2: Double-click inside the area of the top or bottom margin.

Step 3: When the header or footer area opens, place your cursor inside and enter the details you want.

Step 4: After you finish, pick Close header and footer in the ribbon or select a spot in your document.

Customize a header or footer

You can insert fields for document details, change the pages you want to display a header or footer, and adjust the size of the header or footer area.

Step 1: Open the header or footer area by double-clicking the spot inside the top or bottom margin. This displays the Header and footer tab with tools in the ribbon.

Step 2: To add the date and time, a document field, or an image, select one of these options from the Insert section of the ribbon.

Step 3: To change the pages where you want the header or footer to appear, go to the Options section of the ribbon. Check the box for Different first page to use a specific header or footer on the first page only. Or, check the box for Different odd and even pages to use certain headers on every other page.

Step 4: To adjust the size of the header or footer, use the boxes in the Position section of the ribbon. You can enter a measurement into the top or bottom box or use the arrows to increase or decrease the size in small increments.

Step 5: To use a layout or include page numbers with a certain layout, use the drop-down menus on the left side of the ribbon in the Header and footer section. You’ll see the same options as the first set of steps here for using a premade header or footer as well as page numbers.

Remove a header or footer

If after you add a header or footer to your document, you want to remove it, you can do so easily.

Step 1: Go to the Insert tab and head to the Header and footer section of the ribbon.

Step 2: Open the Header or Footer drop-down menu for whichever area you want to remove.

Step 3: Select Remove header or Remove footer.

Headers and footers in Word give you the ideal spots for document details you want to display. Whether page numbers, the date, title, or even a company logo, take advantage of those spaces in your next document.
