The command \fancyhf{} clears the header and footer, otherwise the elements of the default "plain" page style will appear. Below, a description of the rest of the commands and a few more whose usage is similar. \rhead{Share\LaTex} Prints the text included inside the braces on the right side of the header. \lhead{Guides and tutorials} Prints the text set inside the braces on the left side of the header. \chead{ } Similar to the previous commands, in this case the text is centred on the header. hitpsses overeat comearnatexHeaders_and footers mererareo18 Headers and footers - Overs, Edtor de LaTeX one \rfoot{Page \thepage} Prints the word "Page" and next the page number which is automatically set by \thepage on the right side of the footer. See the reference guide for alist of commands that automatically generate content (Section numbers, chapters and so on). \lfoot{ } This prints the parameter passed inside the braces on the left side of the footer. \cfoot{ } Similar to the previous two commands, prints its parameter on the centre of the footer.
