Click on Header and Footer

You will see a dashed line outlining the area of the header at the top of the page and a similar area outlining the footer at the bottom of the page. A toolbar also appears on the screen (experiment with this yourself). These areas outlined with the dashed line are like little pages and you can write in them and insert graphics as is it is a normal page. Normally one does not put more than two lines of information in a header or footer.
