In Word - Header on the First Page only | Microsoft Word Tutorials

To place a header on the first page only is a fairly simple process in Word. This quick and simple tutorial shows you exactly how to do it and how to undo it too.
In Word how to put a header on the first page only.
Microsoft Word Tutorials
Within all my tutorials I aim to help you develop your skills working within Word, Excel and Powerpoint as well as further your knowledge about the tools which are available within the Microsoft Office Software.
Throughout this channel I aim to cover simple subjects such as page numbers, margins, headers and footers, image, pictures and fonts as well as more advanced themes such as tables, mail merge, table of contents and electronic signatures.
Sharing tips and tricks which I discover along my journey is also an important aspect of this channel. I love the idea of giving people the solution to a problem they’ve been struggling with in Microsoft Word, Excel or Powerpoint.
The channel began all because of a problem I had when I had to insert images into a Word Document. I couldn’t find a way to drag and drop multiple images into a table without them expanding across the page, being cropped or interfering with the rest of the text. It wasn’t until I finally sat down one day, determined to find the solution and developed a way to solve the problem. Having found the problem quite difficult to solve without knowing how to do it I decided to make a You Tube video about it. Never once believing that many people would watch it, let alone be so grateful.
After discovering how helpful a simple tutorial could be I decided to make further videos with the aim of once again helping as many people as possible.

Thank you for this video. This helped so much. I didn't find this answer from Microsoft. The instructions they gave was missing the part where you insert a page break.

[@LisaDoe]

Glad it helped! Thank you for your comment :)

Thanks for the tip on the Section Break. However, after I inserted a Section Break, I noticed that it flows down when I type in more text before it. And on to the next page. How can I insert a "permanent" Section Break at the end of that page that stays put, please?

Glad it helped

[@dylanatkinson1426]

Great video! Thanks. Is there a way to eliminate the space occupied by the now Pg2 blank header? For e.g. I have a largish letter head in my Header field, which then 'pushes' the body text of P2 (etc) down the page to accommodate the blank Header box.

[@LisaDoe]

Yes. In your section 2, adjust the header height and because its a separate section from the first page it will only apply the adjustment to you chosen section.

[@johncianciolo8803]

This was great! But can anyone help me change the size of the header once I removed the logo? Our main page logo takes a good part of our header so when I removed it the header stayed the same size.

[@LisaDoe]

As long as you are within the header and footer mode you can place the logo anywhere on the page (no matter the size) and it will stay in the header or footer.
