I do not have access to Word.

When formatting my novel, I have encountered a rather specific problem. I have been successful in making chapters and page breaks where necessary, but the main problem I have is adding text to headers. For instance, placing the author name on the left page and the chapter name on the right. I've managed to add the author's name on the left to every page, but I have not been able to set up chapters. Whenever I add "Chapter 1", it makes every single page Chapter 1. How do I switch the text for different pages in the works document?

Thank you.

Author/title/page number is all you need. Chapter names are completely irrelevant in a header. There's no way to make the header "know" which chapter it's on, as far as I know.
