  • Click Edit Header.

In the blank header area, you can add your name and page numbers or whatever information you desire.

Follow the steps below to accomplish this task:

  • Press CTRL + R.    
     
  • Type your name and press Enter.    
     
  • Type Page.    
     
  • Click the Insert tab.

Not to worry if you decide you would like different information in your header or you want to delete some information. Simply double-click in the header area and you can then edit the header.

Once your edits are finished, double-click outside the header area to continue working in the rest of the document.
