How to make different headers for odd and even pages in Word In long documents, especially when you’re viewing a two-page spread, it’s common to have a different header on odd and even pages.

If page numbers are disappearing in your Microsoft Word document, disable 'Link to Previous', switch to Print Layout view, show white space between pages, etc.

Headers/footers are set per-section in Word. There are a variety of types of Section Breaks that you can insert -- some include a page break; others do not.
