Chapter 3: Managing Text Documents With Writer

Formatting Headers and Footers

Headers and footers can be formatted with multiple objects where an object could be text, a

field or whatever. The footer used in this document uses a table to contain the Title field and

the page number field.

Tabstops can also be used effectively for this purpose. The procedure for setting and editing

tabstops can be found via Help > Contents > Index > Search term > tab stops.

Defining Different Headers

A defined header and footer will appear in all pages that have the same Page Style. However,

different headers for the first page or for even and odd-numbered pages are often needed. For

example, one may want the name of the chapter to appear on the left (even) pages and the

name of the first subchapter to appear on the right (odd) pages. Since headers are a property

of the Page Styles, users need to define two different Page Styles and apply them to the

respective pages. There are preset Styles for First page, Left page and Right page, which

can be adapted to one's specific needs.

Take the Page Style for left pages, this style might have different inner and outer margins,

while the style for right pages has a mirror image of those margins. If different headers and

footers are not needed, simply choose a mirrored page layout (under Page Layout in the

tab Page).

Switching between odd and even Page Styles and between First Page and Left Pages can be

done automatically by defining the Next St yle. If one defines the Page Style with Next

St yle and apply the new Page Style to the first page, then OpenOffice.org will

automatically apply the correct Page Styles to the continuation pages. Here is a method:

1. Open a new text document.

2. Click the Page Styles icon in the Styles and Formatting window (Format > Styles and

Formatting).

3. Choose the Style First Page to use as the basis for a custom Page Style.

4. Open the context menu and choose New.

5. In the Page Styles dialogue, go to the tab Organizer.

a) Give the Page Style a name, such as “Page1,” and

b) define “Left Page” as the Next Style.

6. For the “Left Page” define “Right Page” as the Next Style, and for the “Right

Page,” choose “Left Page.”

Inserting Page Numbers of Continuation Pages

Footers are inserted using Insert > Footer.

1. After creating the footer, set the cursor in it and select Insert > Fields > Other....
