This is extremely easy to do in WordPerfect and in TeX
because of their token-driven formatting. Object-oriented
formatting à la Word and Writer needs some clumsy tricks to
obtain the same result. The most common ways to do it are
via one-row-three-columns tables, or tabs. For the headers
and footers, you already have three placeholders.
And yes, this is just One More Reason why token formatting
is *much* better than OO formatting.
Well then you should use TeX I guess. Every man his own WP.
