Clicking either the Header or Footer button displays a gallery from which you can choose a style for your header or footer. The basic layout of three positions (left, center, and right) is the first style on the palette. Notice that some styles affect only odd-numbered or even-numbered pages. Some of the styles apply tables to the header or footer, so if you click into one of these styles, the Format Tables tab on the Ribbon will activate.
When you choose a header or footer style, Word changes the interface so that you can type in your header or footer. You can display this view by choosing View→Header and Footerwithout having to choose a style from the Ribbon. To work with the interface, simply click into it and type. Click the Page # button on the Ribbon to display the Page Numbers dialog, which you can use to choose alignment and formatting options for your page numbers.
