Hi Lea, Most probably your file has three master pages -- Left, Right, and First. FM creates the L/R automatically when you choose double-sided layout, but whoever created your template would have added the First master page, in which they created a header without including the Running H/F2 variable. All you need to do is apply the First master page to the first page of your file, and you should be OK.
