▸ 2 pages per sheet prints two pages on a single side of the paper. Documents with facing pages may also have a gutter, which is a part of the page that is hidden when the document is bound. Inside margins are in between the two facing pages. Outside margins are the left margin on the left page and the right margin on the right page. This setting makes outside and inside margins identical. ▸ Mirror margins are great for documents with facing pages, like bound reports or newsletters. ▸ Normal is the setting you use for most single-sided documents. You’ll learn more about all of these settings later in this chapter.
On the Margins and Layout tabs, you can control your document’s margins, orientation, headers, and footers. These other settings, such as the Paper Source settings (which let you tell your printer which tray to take the paper from), are typical of the fine-tuning controls you find in dialog boxes. Here, you can customize the page size-by entering numbers in the Width and Height text boxes-and tweak other paper-related settings.
The Page Setup dialog box opens to the Paper tab ( Figure 4-2). But what if you’re not using one of the standard paper sizes on the Size menu? In that case, click More Paper Sizes (at the bottom of the Size menu). The Page Layout → Page Setup → Size menu, shown in Figure 4-1, lets you choose a standard paper size with one click. Menu options usually focus on one or two settings, while dialog boxes are much more complex affairs, letting you change several settings at once. In general, the ribbon’s drop-down menus give you access to quick, predesigned solutions, while dialog boxes give you greater control over more details. So if I have a bunch of continuous sections on a page that I have copy/pasted from elsewhere with their own headers (not linked), then Word will select one of the section headers (I think the top one) and use it for the page header (and/or footer).Word gives you two ways to set options: through ribbon menus and dialog boxes. This is due to the fact that each section can have its own header attached. As I edit the document, my headers disappear or change. I have a bunch of continuous section breaks in my document, each seems to have its own heading. (Use the paragraph symbol on the Home tab to show them, if you have difficulty).
Once you are satisfied that the headers (or footers) are fixed, you can delete each of the new page returns. Once you fix the headers, you can test them by typing in a letter or number in one header and scrolling through the pages to make sure it shows up on all the pages. Do this for each section that you have given its own page (Ugh!). Click it to link the current header to the previous header. The design tab (of the ribbon) should have the focus and you should see a navigation pane with a “link to previous” option. Double click on the header to go into the edit header/footer mode. Once each section is on its own page, we can edit the header (or footer) for that section. After each section break we will need to insert a new page (Ctrl-Enter for shortcut). We need to link each header from each section back to the original header (or footer).
