HOW TO GET RID OF SECTION BREAK NEXT PAGE IN WORD MANUAL

If there’s enough interest, I’ll add pages on techniques for restructuring documents like the one illustrated above, and on creating properly structured documents afresh.

We can see the tabs in the original when the non-printing characters are displayed:Īlso exposed are the empty paragraphs, ¶, used to introduce white space between lines of text. The deterioration of the layout is the result of poor construction, part of which is due to the use of repeated underscore characters and to inconsistent tab settings.
