Suzanne,
Your assumption was indeed correct -- I am attempting to insert full page
graphics in my document. I apologize for not making that clear to everyone
at the outset.
Unfortunately, I have yet to get your wordaround to produce the desired
result. As I'm sure the error is with my implementation (or lack thereof!),
I will step through the process with the hope that you can identify the
problem:

1. Insert line break at end of last line on page using shift+enter. This
results in a small left-pointing arrow and the justification for that line is
lost.
2. Insert page break at beginning of next line after the line break arrow.
This results in a blank page (as desired) as well as a paragraph mark above
the break line. In this instance, the paragraph mark happens to be on the
bottom of the previous page.
3. Highlight paragraph mark and change font size to 1pt. This step I
believe I am performing incorrectly as it does nothing to correct the
justificaton problem on the previous line as I expect. Thus, can you
elaborate on your instruction to "format the paragraph mark as 1 pt or
hidden"?

Thank you all for you time!!

My assumption was that WWALKER was using a manual page break for the usual
reason: in order to insert a full-page graphic on the next page. In such
cases, the break is necessary, as is the workaround. Additionally, if the
justified paragraph has a first-line indent, it will be necessary to apply
an unindented style to the first paragraph (really the remainder of a
paragraph) on the page following the illustration.

This is one of many reasons for not using manual page breaks. The

workaround
suggested by Suzanne just goes to emphasize how cumbersome these things

are.
It is much more effective to set the page size you want and let the text
flow into that size as appropriate. When you want to start a new page with

a
new topic, use a heading style that is formatted for page break before

(and
end the preceding paragraph with a paragraph mark).

I'm trying to prevent the "unjustifying" of text that occurs when a page
break is inserted on a page of justified text. That is to say, the last


line
of text before the break autmatically changes to left justified when a
break
is inserted. Any assitance is solving this issue is much appreciated!
