Document sections overview

The following document sample shows all the document sections in Design View. Notice that this document is grouped by Region, so a Region Header and a Region Footer are displayed. The document contains only one layout, so a single Document Header and Document Footer are displayed.

The first page of the executed document is shown below.

The only document section not displayed on the first page is the Document Footer, which appears at the end of the document. The following sample shows the last page of the document, with the Document Footer.

The Page Footer was moved up on the page to conserve space.

If the document contained multiple layouts, the Document Header and Document Footer are replaced by the Layout Header and Layout Footer, as shown in the multi-layout document below, displayed in Design View:

• Page Header
