More controls and customizations for headers and footers in Google Docs

Quick launch summary 

We’re giving you more options to control and customize headers and footers in Google Docs. 

Previously, you could set a single header or single footer for your entire document, with an option to make it different on the first page only. Now you can also define a specific header or footer for each section of your document, or use different headers and footers on odd and even page numbers.

To use different headers or footers per page, see this article in the Help Center.
