Header and Footer

With this function you can set the header and footer of a document.

Headers and footers are text that appears at the top and bottom area of the pages. You can customize your pages by creating headers and footers. Typical headers and footers include slide numbers, date, the document's title, a company name, the author's name, or the text like "draft" or "confidential".

You can apply the same header and footer to all pages or change the header and footer for the current page.
