Headers and footers outside margins

[Matthew]

I need to set up a template for a book type of publication. I have wide
outside mirrored margins for the main body of the pages. I want to create a
header that prints outside the main page margins. How do I do this?

TIA

Anchor a text box or frame to the header; you can then position it
anywhere on the page. Since it is in the header, it will be visible on
all pages using that header.

Thanks Stefan - easy when you know how!

If you really want to print in the side margin (as Stefan assumed), then his
reply is correct (and see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/AnchorToHeader.htm for more), but if you
just want a header in the header space to extend into the margin, you can
apply a negative indent to the header paragraph.

Good point.

By the way, is that article new? I don't think I've seen it before.

Yes, it's new; it was published September 28. Other (relatively) new
