Header on second page

alaube,

This has stymied quite a few people, so don't feel bad. Here are the steps to get what you want.

Put cursor at end of page 1
Click on Insert . Section Break (it should create a new page 2)
Put your cursor in the main text area of page 2
Click on the Layout inspector > Section button
UNcheck "Use previous headers & footers"
Check "First page is different"

Now you should be able to put whatever you want in the header on page 2 without it affecting the header on page 1.

Let us know if you need more info.

Hi there can you help me i have pages 08 i am trying to print one page out, it has got a header and a footer with logs and text
All I want is one page to print out, but pages makes two pages I can not delete the second page as it looks like its is linked

Here's a guess, based on your mention of the yellow box. I'm thinking that you tried to delete the thumbnail, and not part of the document itself. In Pages, each page you create is combined with all the others to form what's called a section. If you look at the thumbnail view, you'll see one yellow box surrounding both of your pages. If you try to delete a single page by deleting one of the thumbnail icons, you'll delete the entire section, which, in your case, is the whole document.

The way around this would have been to follow the instructions given to you previously about highlighting the text in the document, and not the thumbnail icons, then hitting the Delete key. A second way would have been to put a section break at the end of the first page, thus creating two separate sections -- with two yellow boxes. You could then have highlighted the page 2 thumbnail, then just deleted that.

Live and learn.

Stuart,

If you want to delete the second page, try this: click on View > Show Invisibles. Highlight everything on page 2. Press the Delete key. Print.
