Different Layouts for different pages in a template.

I am trying to setup a template for a business with a textbox on the side and a small picture at the bottom, the text box forces the left side margin to be extra wide so as not to interfere with the regular typing. But I need to make the side margins normal for the second page and all following pages, further I would like to include a picture in the footer that begins on the second page. Is this possible? Should I just have one template for the first page and a seperate one for the following pages? If this is possible how? I am comfortable using word but this area is somewhat new to me.

The page Suzanne gave you may answer all your questions. If not, or if you
want more, take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document
where you want one header on the first page and a different header on other
pages. <URL: http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm> This gives
step-by-step instructions.

Also take a look at:

Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While they
are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists
very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those templates
in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have
better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.
