There are instances when you put considerable effort into writing documents in Korean file format only to edit headers and footers in reports individually.
By utilizing the header and footer functions of Korean editing, you can easily resolve these issues.
Through section division, different page setup settings per page are also possible. Utilizing these features makes the creation of HWP documents much more efficient and professional.
We will explain step-by-step methods of creating Korean headers and footers that can be directly applied in practical work. Discover the know-how of writing Korean reports that significantly reduce writing time while enhancing their perfection.

Case 1: Adding a Korean Header
When writing an HWP document, how do you add the document title and subtitle at the top of the page?
The Korean header is a feature that repeatedly displays the document title, subtitle, etc., at the very top of every page in a Korean document. The header is an essential element for enhancing the completeness of Korean reports.
How to Add a Korean Header

Select 'Header' from the 'Page' menu or press the shortcut keys Ctrl+N, H.

In the header/footer dialog box, select the header.
Set the odd/even page distinction option.
Click 'Create' to activate the header area.
How to Input and Edit Korean Header Content

Enter content in the activated header area.
Set the alignment, font size, and format. In addition to text, you can emphasize the header area with Korean border settings.
Press 'Close' or Shift+Esc to finish editing the Korean header.
Once the header is created, it will be applied collectively from the subsequent pages with the newly registered header.
Case 2: Deleting a Korean Header
There are times when you need to remove headers or footers that were set during Korean editing. Simply selecting and deleting the content of the header is incomplete. Deleting only the content leaves the header area empty. Let's look at how to completely remove the Korean header area.
How to Delete a Korean Header

Double-click the header area to activate it.
Click 'Delete' from the 'Header/Footer' menu.
Through this process, the HWP document's header/footer will be perfectly removed.
Case 3: Modifying a Korean Header
There are cases where you need to modify the header while writing a Korean report.
The approach changes depending on whether you want to modify the entire header or change the header content from the middle of the document. Directly modifying the existing header changes all pages from page 1. To change only from a certain page, you need to newly insert the Korean header from that page.
How to Modify the Entire Korean Header
Right-click on the header area and select 'Edit Header', or double-click the header area to enter edit mode.
Modify the content, alignment, and format as desired.
Press the ESC key to return to the original editing screen.
How to Insert a Korean Header from a Specific Page

Place the cursor on the HWP page you want to change (e.g., page 5).
Press Ctrl+N, H to open the dialog box.
Select 'Header' and click 'Create'.
Enter new content and apply formatting.
Press Shift+Esc to complete editing the Korean header.

Upon completion, pages 1-4 retain the existing header, and the new header is applied from page 5 onwards. Using this method allows for independent management of headers in each section.

Case 4: Setting Different Korean Headers for Odd/Even Pages
We have discovered how to add headers across all pages of a Korean document.
In Korean, you can set different headers for odd and even pages.
This is a very useful feature when creating bound documents or professional Korean reports.

How to Set Headers for Odd Pages
Select 'Header' from the 'Page' menu or press Ctrl+N, H to run the header/footer dialog box.
With 'Header' selected, choose 'Odd Pages'.
Click 'Create' to activate the header area.
Enter the desired content (e.g., 'Introduction to inline AI').
Apply alignment and press Shift+Esc to complete editing the Korean header.
How to Set Headers for Even Pages
Press Ctrl+N, H again to open the dialog box.
Select 'Header' → 'Even Pages', and click 'Create'.
Enter content different from the odd pages (e.g., 'How to Use inline AI') in the activated header area.
Apply alignment and press Shift+Esc to complete the editing.
How to Separately Set and Confirm Headers for Odd and Even Pages
Click the dropdown button next to the 'View' menu → Click the 'Zoom (S)' command.
In the screen zoom dialog box, select 'Fit Page' for the scale.
Select 'Paired' for page layout.

The screen changes to the appearance of a bound document when opened.
The header is displayed on the right for odd pages and on the left for even pages.
You can confirm that it is applied alternately throughout the document.
Case 5: Adding a Korean Footer
If you want to display information at the bottom of the page instead of the top while editing Korean, what should you do?
You can use 'Adding a Korean Footer'.
In Korean editing, the footer displays page numbers or other information at the bottom of the page. Usually, the footer page number is displayed at the bottom when writing Korean reports.
How to Add a Korean Footer

Press Ctrl+N, H to open the header/footer dialog box.
Select 'Footer' and click 'Create' in the 'No Shape' state.
How to Display Total Page Numbers in the Korean Footer
Using the Korean footer total page number display method shows in the form of 'page 1 of total 8 pages'.
This is a function impossible with the usual page numbering and can prevent page omissions during mass printing while greatly enhancing the completion of Korean report formats.

Work in the activated footer area at the bottom.
Select 'Boilerplate' from the 'Header/Footer' menu.
Select and insert 'Current Page/Total Number of Pages'.
Adjust placement with center alignment.
Press 'Close' or ESC to complete editing.

Case 6: Dividing Sections in Korean
While writing a document, there may be cases where you need to apply a different header and footer from the middle of the document. In such cases, you can use 'Section Division' to apply headers and footers differently.
Furthermore, in Korean editing, section division is essential when creating documents with mixed horizontal and vertical formats or different page setup settings per page. The '1-1 Section' displayed at the bottom of the Korean file indicates that the entire document is composed of one section, serving as the basis of Korean base page editing.
How to Execute Korean Section Division

Place the cursor at the position where the new section should start.
Click 'Section Division' from the 'Page' menu at the top.
The cursor moves to the next page, creating a new section.
Check the section number change in the status bar at the bottom. (For example: Section 2-2, Section 2-1)
After dividing the section, entering a new header and footer will apply the new format automatically from the subsequent pages, as shown in the image below.
Case 7: Deleting and Managing Korean Sections
There may be instances during Korean editing where you need to delete unnecessary sections or find and navigate to specific sections. Knowing the correct method can help you efficiently manage HWP documents.
How to Delete a Korean Section
Place the cursor in the section you want to delete.
Press the Backspace key followed by Enter.
Check that the number of sections has decreased in the status bar at the bottom. (For example: Section 4 → Section 3-3)
How to Navigate Sections in a Document with Many Pages
Click the section display part at the bottom of the document (e.g., Section 2).
Select the desired section number in the popup window.
Click the 'Go' button to immediately move to the section.
Key Tips to Increase Korean Editing Efficiency
By utilizing section and header/footer functions, you can create professional Korean reports.
First, design a logical document structure with Korean header section division. Then, set headers/footers to apply consistent branding across the entire document. By thereafter displaying the total number of pages, you can create a systematic HWP document.
