Header and footer questions

[boutells]

Is there a way to get rid of the space designated for a header/footer completely so as to use that space in the document? While I can expand it beyond the default space by filling it in, I cannot find a way to contract it to nil height.



Is there a way to set up a document so that the header/footer appears only on the first page. I know I can do that by creating a new section but I want to create a template that will insert the header on the first page only and the document goes to the next page automatically without inserting the header on subsequent pages.
