  • @Marijn - Not all that much of a duplicate, IMNSHO: The older posting was concerned importantly with how to get the fancyhdr machinery with the elsarticle document class (which doesn't handle the document class twoside). – Mico Jan 30 '17 at 16:07

    @Mico The answer to the older post is indeed not relevant here, but the question itself (nearly) solves the problem of the current post, particularly in showing the use of \fancyhead[RO,LE]{\thepage}. Granted, your solution below solves the problem much nicer and without distractions, but the other post could at least serve to point the OP towards fancyhdr (welcome, @user10699 !) and let him continue from there. Also: H is what keeps TeX.SE nice. – Marijn Jan 30 '17 at 16:35

I suggest you use the fancyhdr package.

\documentclass[twoside]{article}

\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\fancyhead{}\fancyfoot{} % clear all header and footer fields
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt} % no header rule
\fancyhead[LE,RO]{\thepage}
\fancyhead[CE]{\em The Journal of Finance}
\fancyhead[CO]{\em The American Put Option and Its Critical Stock Price}

\usepackage{lipsum} % for filler text
\begin{document}

\setcounter{page}{2334}
\lipsum[1-15] % generate 3 pages of text
\end{document}

  • what if you want to skip the first 2 pages (front page and table of contents page in my case ) ? – user10699 Jan 30 '17 at 16:11
  • @user10699 - You could provide the instruction \thispagestyle{plain} (or, if you prefer, \thispagestyle{empty} on each of the first two pages. – Mico Jan 30 '17 at 16:23

  • USING the \usepackage[margin=1.5in]{geometry} i find that the page number is not inline with the margin. where can i change the p.numer margin ? – user10699 Jan 30 '17 at 22:57
  • @user10699 - Does the instruction \usepackage[margin=1.5in]{geometry} come before or after the fancyhdr-related code? It should come before the fancyhdr-related code... – Mico Jan 30 '17 at 23:01
