If the checkbox is selected, headers and footers for even and odd pages are set separately. If the checkbox is not selected, even and odd pages have identical settings for headers and footers.
To set special header or footer for the first page, select the Special Header/Footer for the First Page checkbox. The checkbox is deselected by default.

If the Different Headers and Footers for Even and Odd Pages checkbox was selected, the header and footer editing dialog box contains the Even Page Header/Footer and Odd Page Header/Footer tabs that are identical to the Header/Footer tab.
If the Special Header/Footer for the First Page checkbox was selected, the header and footer editing dialog box contains the Header/Footer and First Page Header/Footer tabs that are identical to the Header/Footer tab.
If both checkboxes were selected, the header and footer editing dialog box contains the Even Page Header/Footer, Odd Page Header/Footer, and First Page Header/Footer tabs that are identical to the Header/Footer tab.
The header and footer area is divided into three parts with individual text alignment: left, center or right. Each of the parts has its own parameters.

After executing the operations the created header or footer is added to the list of templates and is automatically set in the Header/Footer combobox.
