When you double click on the topmost or the end section of a page, as we already learned in the above steps, the tools ribbon would show all the tools that can be used to edit a header or a footer. This is exactly where you will find the option for removing the header and footer from the first page. You can see that the first page for my document has no header or footer as I backspaced the text from both the spaces. If I had not selected this option and had backspaced the text in the header and footer of the first page, the deletion would take place on all the pages and not just the first page. That is why it is very important that you select the option for ‘Different First Page’ if you want the header and footer on the first page to be blank, or to be different than the rest of the document. Or, if you want the header and the footer to be different, you can simply write something else in place of the original header and footer just how I did in the image below.
