Part Three

Add a header and footer.

The following code adds a header and footer parts.

When these are added then text and images can appear on each page.

On the Word document output, the line has been added as an image.

It is also possible to set up these headers and footers on differing pages

     i.e. odd or even pages. The style of the page numbering can also be changed

     i.e. instead of a slash the wording “of” could be used.

Please refer to Part One of this series to see the Word document output and calling code.
