Suppressing Headers and Footers within document.

S

Samedy

I have created a large document. It is training material for a class I am
teaching. I have this document divided into chapters, and each chapter has
it's own cover page.

Is there anyway to turn off Headers and Footers just for these pages? I know
you can do that for the first page of the document, but I want this done to
page 54 and 68, and have it resume the headers and footers after.

You could do this by one of two methods

1. Incorporate the header in a conditional field construction eg

{ IF{ = { IF{ Page } = 54 1 0 } + { IF{ Page } = 68 1 0 } } <> 1 "Put the
header here" }
or conversely
{ IF{ = { IF{ Page } = 54 1 0 } + { IF{ Page } = 68 1 0 } } = 0 "Put the
header here" }

If the current page is 54 or 68 the calculation will result in 1 otherwise
it will be 0.

OR

Insert a section break either side of pages 54 and 68 and set the relevant
sections to have no headers. This method would be more suited to a document
which may later be added to as the former will always have no headers on
pages 54 and 68 regardless of whether the page count has changed.

Hi Samedy,

If the document is already set up with a different first page, and the first page has no header/footer material, inserting a 'Next
Page' Section break (via Insert|Break) immediately before pages 54 and 68 will automatically omit the header/footer material from
pages 54 and 68. Do note that, if page numbering is involved, the page #s for pages 54 and 68 will not be displayed, but they'll
still exist and be accounted for in TOCs etc.

Even if the document isn't currently set up with a different first page, inserting the 'Next Page' Section breaks and formatting the
new Sections with the different first page layout will allow you to suppress the page numbering on the first page of each of those
Sections.
