: Re: Scrivener customising the header and footer To my understanding you can only edit the header and footer through the compile settings. Here we can customise using tokens:- <$compilegroup> <$projecttitle>

Far be it from me to disagree with the Scrivener staff, but I have been doing this very thing with my PDF. Here's the basics of my setup.

PDF output using Printing layout
In the Formatting section, Level 1 folders are configured to always start on a recto page. (Under the Section Layout button, then First Page tab.)
In the Page Settings section...

Header and Footer tab

My desired header and footer are typed in the center boxes
No header on first page and pages following page breaks is checked.
No header or footer on single pages is not checked.

First Pages tab

I put a single space in the header and footer center text boxes
Different first page header/footer is checked.
Page numbers count first pages is checked.
Start regular header and footer is set to Page 4.

Facing Pages tab

Same header and footer text from the first tab is in the center text boxes
Use facing pages is checked.

And here is how it comes out on mine...

Hope this helps.
