Default How to copy header and footer?

Hi,
I would like to know for Word 2013 how can I copy header and footer from one page to another inside the same document so that ''another'' page will have IDENTICAL header and footer as first page? I am trying with ctrl c and ctrl v but its not working. The header and footer doesn't come identical as on other page from where I copy. It must come identical. My main problem is that color is little changed (main green remains but darkness is little changed) which shouldn't be. Also due to inaccuracy of copying identical header (note that i am asking for footer too) the title below it goes too low on the page and i cannot move it up so this is another problem.

In Insert icon i see ''Header'' icon and another icon which is ''Footer'' but its not helpful.

Thanks.

Some thoughts: Your question shows a lack of understanding of how Word works. This is not a criticism, but is a suggestion for a bit more training. When you are dealing with multiple headers and footers you are reaching a level of complexity that few users experience and where more knowledge is needed. Microsoft wants people to believe that Word is easy to use. For many tasks, it is; not for all, though.

1) Turn on display of hidden formatting marks. There is likely one or more empty paragraphs when you paste. That will throw your spacing off.

2) Use styles for formatting text. There are built-in styles for header and footer that you can modify to suit.

3) By default, the same header and footer appears on every page of a document without any cutting and pasting. You should look into the controls for "different first page" and "different even and odd." These settings are in the header and footer tools tab.

4) With the color difference, does it show up when you print?

I hope this helps.
