In Microsoft Word 2007 and higher, you may insert a header or footer into your documents. These elements stay at the top or bottom of your page, and can be edited separately from the body of your document. They may include graphics (like a company logo), the author's name or contact information, the page number, or the date the document was created or published. Headers appear at the top of the page, footers appear at the bottom, and they may both be used on the same page.
These instructions apply to Word 2016, Word 2013, Word 2010, and Word 2007.
To add page numbers to an existing header or footer: If you already have a header or footer and you want to add a page number to it, Word has an option to automatically insert the page number into the existing header or footer.

For instance, double-clicking the header should appear similar to the example shown below.
With your cursor is in the header section, type the text you'd like to appear in your header.
By default, the header appears in every page of your document. If you want the header of the first page to look different, check the option Different First Page in the Ribbon at the top of your screen. Also, in the Header & Footer Tools section of the Ribbon, you can adjust the header size, and choose if you want it to appear differently on odd and even pages.
When you are done modifying the header, you can either double-click on the body of the document, or click the Close Header and Footer button in the Ribbon.
To remove a header or footer, double-click it. Then, in the Ribbon at the top of your screen, click Header or Footer, then choose Remove Header or Remove Footer.

The documentation by predecessors was extremely weak or outdated. I stumbled upon Microsoft Visio, but unfortunately the client only has the regular office suite w/ Word, Access, etc. Microsoft visio mac reddit 2017. & no Exchange / 365 setup.Are there any valid alternatives that do work with Visio file formats (a few of the switch manufacturers we use release visio templates to use). In my spare time I'd like to update docs to get up to date info & provide a bit more data metrics to help my potential replacement.Given part of this is mapping the network, the MDF & IDFs, and associated closets & data centers in satellite sites.
After you exit from the header or footer, you can see its text at the top or bottom of your document. It appears ghostly, to let you know that it’s there but not part of the document. To edit the header or footer, double-click that ghostly text.
