The header and footer settings for handouts are not saved but must be reapplied every time the file is reopened (menu view->headers/footers. Another bug is that this dialog does not works as expected. Often one has to apply it several time to get the expected result. E.g. the settings for handout view seem to be only applied if the handout view is also activated in impress. In my opinion that dialog should work in every view, otherwise there would be no need for two tabs in it. Also the dialog button "Apply to all" should apply to both tabs and not only the activated one.

Just tested LO3.4beta4 and the bug still exists. I'll attach a sample file where the problem can be reproduced on my system (Windows Vista): In the document open the print dialog, select "handout". No header and footer is shown in the preview (and in a real print). Close the dialog. Open "View->Header and Footer...", select the tab "Notes and Handouts" and apply to all (staying in the other tab doesn't work, another bug!?). After this, the headers and footers are shown in the print preview (and print-out). Save the file. Close and reopen. The headers and footers of handouts disappeared again.

Bug also present in LO 4.3.5.2, Build-ID: 3a87456aaa6a95c63eea1c1b3201acedf0751bd5 on same system as before. Tested with 32-bit version on Windows 7, 64 bit.
Created attachment 112547 [details] PDF printed using 4.5 alpha from 19 Jan 2015 Here is my PDF printed output. Is this wrong? I don't have any View->Header and Footer. Can you say, how to reproduce the correct result in 4.3+? Win 7 Pro 64-bit Version: 4.5.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 07e84cae983c08afdba03018413a19d01abb3006 TinderBox: Win-x86@62-TDF, Branch:MASTER, Time: 2015-01-19_06:15:38
Created attachment 112591 [details] PDF showing the correct headers and footers This attachment shows the "correct" (see also next attachment) printout of the handout including headers and footers, created with LO 4.3.5. To reproduce this go to View > Headers & Footers > Notes and handouts > Apply to all and then print the handout. After closing the document and reopening the settings again are lost.
Created attachment 112592 [details] PDF showing correct layout and headers/footers This pdf shows the handout as it actually should look (2 rows, 2 columns), created from LO3.6. The incorrect layout in LO4 (2 rows, 3 colums) is another bug (80866).
Thanks. 4.5 has the View - Headers & Footers removed, so I got confused! I got the same results as you in Win 7 Pro 64-bit, LibO Version: 4.3.6.1 Build ID: 9629686a67dd1f357477c13325e45a66f3452bb9
