Some documents need the same information, such as your name, address, phone and fax numbers, and e-mail address, to appear on every page. You can place this information as headers or footers in Word for Mac documents. Headers or footers will appear on every page of a document.

1With your document open, choose View→Print Layout. Then choose View→Header and Footer.

You need to be in Print Layout view because you can’t see the header or footer in Draft view.

Place the cursor where you will add checkboxes, and then click the CheckBox 1 in the CheckBox category of Auto Text Pane to insert it. See screenshot: See screenshot: Notes: After installing Kutools for Outlook, the Auto Text pane is added in the right of Message Window by default.

2Click anywhere inside the header or footer and type your text.

• Word will replace the default bullet character with the selected checkbox. This particular symbol won’t let you check anything in the actual document, but it’s great for printing. Insert Checkbox in Word: Content Control. Also If you want the option to check the checkbox within the Word document, use a content control.
• Here's a guide on how to insert a checkbox in Google Docs on iPhone, iPad, Windows, Mac, and Android. Skip to Navigation Skip to the Content of this Page Back to the Accessibility Menu.

The text will then appear on every page.

3Click anywhere in the footer area and then choose View-- >Formatting Palette to open the Formatting Palette. Expand the Formatting Palette’s Header and Footer panel.

The Formatting Palette enables you to include the page number, date, and time within your header or footer.

4Set the options you prefer.

Different First Pagelets you have a different header and footer (or no header and footer) on the first page of your document. Different Odd and Even Pages lets you create different headers and footers for odd- and even-numbered pages. Hide Body Text causes everything between the header and footer to disappear from the screen. And Header from Top and Footer from Bottom lets you move the header down and/or the footer up.

The default for headers and footers is 0.5 inches, which means the header begins half an inch down from the top of the page and the footer ends half an inch up from the bottom of the page.

In the PC the OVR in the Word used to stand for overwrite, maybe that would help in your searchs.

I really, really don't know why 'overtype', shomething that was useful when the UI for word processors was command-line based, survived the coming of the GUI… In the Mac, Apple decided not to keep the Ins key, and Word was created for the Mac first…
I remember reading Rick Shaut's blog about how this was something added under consumer demand somewhere around Word 6… but I cannot find the post.

All I can say is thankfully no Insert key does exist on the Mac... I can't count the number of times I have inadvertently activated this on my work PC (the key is extremely easy to accidentally press) and subsequently lost work before I've noticed.

Agreed. I can't remember the last time I intentionally wanted to turn on overwrite/insert mode.

i can't find that overtype button at the bottom of the window on word mac 2008. i think it may have been removed. furthermore, a search for 'overtype' in word's help files does not bring up anything but the option can be set under preferences -> edit -> overtype mode toggle.
i have no idea why this is not documented in the help files by careless Microsoft.

Thank you for the tip above here. I rarely use Overtype but occasionally it's invaluable for completing basically assembled forms in word where form authors have relied (a little annoyingly, albeit well intended) on the use of underscores to block out a fillable area.
Just as an fyi, for Microsoft Word 2011 on a Mac, to use Overtype you have the same two options you had on Office 2008.
Option #1: Set in preferences (less useful, bit fiddly, but quick for a one off)
Word > Preferences > Edit > Overtype (toggle box)
Option #2.: Add a Custom Menu command for 'Overtype'
View > Toolbars > Customize Toolbars & Menus > (Click 'Commands' tab) > (Click 'All Commands' filter) > Overtype (drag either to menu or toolbar)
I put under 'Edit' menu. If you really want the toolbar button, with Word 2011 and the new 'Ribbon', it seems to only let you drag the custom toolbar entry to the toolbar at very top of the Word window.
Hope this helps - I was surprised at how tricky this was to find, too!
