Headers, footers and master pages
Page numbering
When you begin a new document, the document consists initially of a single
chapter. Accordingly, if you change something related to page formatting, your
change affects the whole document.
If you divide the document into chapters with Insert > Break > Chapter break,
each new chapter assumes at first the page formatting of the original document. In
general, the following holds:
Important: When you insert a chapter break, the new chapter that is created
takes on the page formatting and the master page layout of the current chapter.
However, when you subsequently modify the page formatting and master page
layout of the new chapter, your changes affect only that chapter.
However, when you have divided a document into chapters, you can set up different
headers and footers for each chapter, set a different paper format for each
chapter, etc.
Chapter formatting
Chapter formatting goes beyond the page formatting that can be applied to chapters
on a chapter-by-chapter basis, and involves formats that are specific to chapters
as such.
To modify a chapter’s page formatting, use the commands described in chapter
“Page formatting” beginning on page 99.
To modify a chapter’s chapter formatting, proceed as follows:
1. Position the text cursor anywhere within the chapter of interest – or select
several chapters to change the format for all of them at the same time. A selection
can begin in any paragraph of the first chapter of interest and end in any
paragraph in the last chapter.
2. Invoke the Format > Chapter command.
