What headers and footers are for

Professional documents identify themselves on every page: the report title up top, the version and date at the bottom, a matter number for legal files. When pages get printed and separated, that repeated line is what keeps them traceable.

Set it once, applied everywhere

Type the header and/or footer text, choose alignment, and it is applied identically to every page of the document — no manual per-page editing.

Combine with page numbers

Add page numbers separately for full pagination control — footer text and numbering work well together. Files are processed temporarily and deleted automatically — there is no general cloud storage.
