From: Mary Ann on
I am creating a template. I want the first page to have different headers,
footers and margins from subsequent pages. When I save the template, I want
only one page to be present.

I have used the ?Different First Page? in Page Setup to create the two sets
of headers and footers, which works great.

However, I cannot set different margins for the subsequent pages because
Page Setup only gives me the options Whole Document or From This Point
Forward. If I was doing this in an ordinary document for myself I would
insert a section break at the appropriate point and then create different
margins for that section.

But ? I am setting up a blank template for others to use and therefore don?t
want to put the section break in.

Is there a way to do this?

If you create the second page (whether by insert page break, or however),
then set the margins, etc to how you want it. I tend to save just then.
Then delete the now, non-required second page. then re-save. I have found
that the settings for any second and beyond pages have been saved on this
file for any future user.

Best of luck.

Thank you for your reply Dean. I couldn't get this to work for me but now
have an alternative solution.
