If you want to append the content of header and footer of “Header Footer File.docx” to another document, you can use the following code example.

Document srcDoc = new Document(MyDir + @"Header Footer File.docx");
Document dstDoc = new Document(MyDir + @"File With Issue.docx");

MergeHeaderFooter(srcDoc, dstDoc, HeaderFooterType.HeaderPrimary);
MergeHeaderFooter(srcDoc, dstDoc, HeaderFooterType.FooterPrimary);
dstDoc.Save(MyDir + @"19.11.docx");

public static void MergeHeaderFooter(Document srcDoc, Document dstDoc, HeaderFooterType headerType)
{
    foreach (Section section in dstDoc.Sections)
    {
        HeaderFooter header = section.HeadersFooters[headerType];
        if (header == null)
        {
            // There is no header of the specified type in the current section, create it.
            header = new HeaderFooter(section.Document, headerType);
            section.HeadersFooters.Add(header);
        }

        foreach (Node srcNode in srcDoc.FirstSection.HeadersFooters[headerType].ChildNodes)
        {
            Node dstNode = dstDoc.ImportNode(srcNode, true, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting);
            header.AppendChild(dstNode);
        }
    }
}
