Deleting headers and footers
You can remove the text from a header any time you like by clicking in the header
frame, selecting all the text and then simply deleting it.
As required, you can also completely remove the header frame itself from the
document, even though this is normally not necessary. To do this, proceed as
follows:
1. Position the text cursor within the header frame.
2. Click on the icon in the Header and Footer toolbar.
Alternatively, you can right-click on any empty area in the header frame and
choose the Delete Header/Footer command from the context menu.
The header frame, together with all its content, is now removed. You can set up a
new header frame any time you like with Insert > Header.
The procedure for removing footers is similar.
Master pages
This chapter has already introduced you to headers and footers, which have to be
entered only once and then appear on every page. This is a very useful thing; but
TextMaker has yet another trick up its sleeve:
The master page likewise appears on every page of the document. However, as its
name implies, it is not limited to a few lines at the top and bottom margins, but can
cover an entire page.
Please note that only frames are permitted on a master page (thus, for example, text
frames, picture frames etc.).
For example, if you wanted to enhance a letter with a “watermark”, you would
simply insert a picture frame containing an appropriate picture on the master page
and set the Text wrapping property of the picture to “Behind text”. The watermark
would then appear on every page of the document, and the text would flow right
over it.
