MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / December 2003Change header vertical margin for one page only
A manuscript I'm working on uses headers and footers. I don't want the odd page header to appear at the beginning of each chapter, but I also don't want to lose space caused by a blank header. Each chapter is a separate section, and each first header is different (blank). I cannot figure out how I can set the vertical space used by the first blank header to zero (or close to it) without affecting all others in the section. Nick Ordinarily the first page of a chapter has a deeper top margin than the rest, not shorter. I don't understand what you're trying to do. -- Suzanne S.

Then close the header/footer view. Sometimes there is the residue of something you typed in the header even though you can't see it. In my experience, a truly blank header does not use any space.
