Apply saved template to all pages in word doc.

I have a saved word template for business documents. The template has a
header and graphic I would like to show on every page of the document. So
far, I can only get the template to apply to the first page, when the text
runs over onto a second page, the header and graphic are not there.

I would like to be able to open a new doc. based on the template and have
every page feature the header info and graphic.

thanks!

What you're calling a "header and graphic" is evidently just in the body of
the first page of the template, or else it's in a first-page header (if, in
File > Page Setup > Layout, the "Different first page" option is checked).

If it's the first situation, you need to cut the "header and graphic" to the
clipboard, open the header area (View > Header & Footer), and paste.

If it's the second situation, and if there's a reason to have the "Different
first page" option checked, then you need to temporarily insert a page break
to make a second page; copy the "header and graphic" from the first-page
header and paste it into the second- (and other-) page header; and delete
the temporary page break.
