You should be able to have Header and Footer option on your editing page, this option allow you to add header message or logo

Size 14 or 12 is cool depending on what you want but the only thing is that it will add more pages to the work. Use what is suitable for you.

To add your book name to all your pages. Use the Header option. Add to all pages with one click. I prefer using the Microsoft Word than Google docs.

Question no.1:

I formatted my book in Google docs using Times New Roman size 12 font and 1.5 line spacing, it came out around 136 pages.

Then I now reformatted it with same Times New Roman font but size 14 because size 12 was too small when I previewed it on Google docs and it came out 163 pages.


What do you guys think??

Is Times New Roman size 14 okay??



Question no. 2:

How can I add my book name atop all the pages of the book on Google docs??

Answer to Question 1:
Yes, Times New Roman size 14 is okay, especially if you found size 12 too small when previewing it. Size 14 makes the text more readable, which is important for accessibility and ease of reading. However, if you are planning to print the book, you might want to consider size 12 or 13 instead, as those are more standard for printed books.

If your book is for an audience that benefits from larger text (e.g., children's books or books for older readers), then size 14 is perfectly fine. Just keep in mind that a larger font increases the number of pages, which might affect printing costs if you plan to publish physically.


Answer to Question 2:
To add your book name atop all the pages in Google Docs, follow these steps:

1. Open your document in Google Docs.
2. Go to "Insert" in the top menu.
3. Hover over "Headers & footers" and select "Header".
4. Click inside the header area and type your book title.
5. If you want the title on the right side instead of centered, press the Tab key a few times.
6. If you want to add the page number alongside the title, go to "Insert" → "Page numbers" and choose the desired format.
7. Click anywhere outside the header to exit editing mode.

Now, your book name will appear at the top of every page.

Honestly speaking, you've tried sir. I did everything but didn't see any header. I only saw footer button.

I did the page number yesterday by tapping "page setup" right under "page break" option.

But I want to go watch some YouTube videos I downloaded last night on how to add numerical numbers (i, ii, iii)


This thing don tire me o but you try your best sha
