Varying Document Formatting Using Section Breaks
Use section breaks in your document wherever you want to separate your document
into sections with different layouts, numbering, or other document formatting. You
can use section breaks to make the following formatting elements different from one
part of your document to the next:
 Headers
 Footers
 Page numbering
 Master objects (repeated background images)
To create a section break:
m Choose Insert > Section Break.
When you show invisibles in your document, you’ll see a section break symbol that
looks like this:
When you insert a section break, the new document section automatically “inherits”
all of the formatting and layout attributes of the previous section. To change these
attributes, use the Layout Inspector to set up new page numbering, headers and
footers, and margins.
Once you create a section break, changes made to the master objects, headers,
footers, or page numbering, will apply only to the section in which you make the
changes.
To make headers and footers different in one section of a document:
1 Place the insertion point in the document section you want to change.
2 Choose View > Show Inspector (or click Inspector in the toolbar), and then click the
Layout Inspector button.
