People don't normally place graphics on the header/footer layer, but they can. Similarly, graphics can appear on all three layers. For instance, headers and footers are composed primarily of text-text obviously appears in the text layer, and text boxes can appear in the graphics layer. In reality, text can appear in all three layers of your document. The other layer is the drawing layer, which contains graphic objects. First is the header/footer layer, which contains both the header and footer information that appears on every page in your final document. You are probably most familiar with the text layer, in which your text actually resides. Each document has several different layers. Word uses a 'layered' approach to documents. Have you ever placed a picture in your Word document, only to have the picture not be visible when you are later working in the document? This seems to be a common occurrence, and there are several reasons for this.
