Lesson 16: Headers and Footers/en/word/columns/content/ IntroductionThe header is a section of the document that appears in the top margin, while the footer is a section of the document that appears in the bottom margin. Headers and footers
generally contain additional information such as page numbers, dates, an author's name, and footnotes, which can help keep longer documents organized and make them easier to read. Text entered in the header or footer will appear on each page of the document. Optional: Download our practice document. Watch the video below to learn more about headers and footers in Word.

To insert the date or time into a header or footer:Sometimes it's helpful to include the date or time in the header or footer. For example, you may want your document to show the date when it was created. On the other hand, you may want to show the date when it was printed, which you can do by setting it to update automatically. This is useful if you frequently update and print a document because you'll always be able to tell which version is the most recent.
