What Is Excel Header and Footer?

Excel headers and footers are sections that appear at the top and bottom of printed pages. They are not visible in normal worksheet view but appear during Print Preview and PDF export.

Why Headers and Footers Are Important

Professional reports require page numbers, company names, document titles and dates on every page. Without headers and footers, printed Excel files look unorganized and incomplete.

Common Header & Footer Elements

  • Company name or logo text
  • Document title
  • Page numbers
  • Current date and time
  • Confidential labels

Excel Dynamic Codes Explained

  • &P – Current page number
  • &N – Total pages
  • &D – Current date
  • &T – Current time
  • &F – File name

Manual Method Is Slow

Normally users must open Page Layout → Header/Footer for each sheet manually. In workbooks with 20–50 sheets, this becomes extremely time-consuming.
