Hi, when I type all the way to the end of a page, for some reason, why does
Word automatically bring the last line of the page down into the next page? Can I change that? Because I have the margins set at 1" on all sides but when it automatically brings the last line down onto the next page, my bottom margin of the previous page is like an 1'1/2. Please let me know if you need clarification. Much appreciated for help. Thanks! |

Hello,
Thanks for the link. It was quite helpful, but I went back to my word document and highlighted everything. When I went to 'paragraph' and then under 'spacing,' I changed 0 pt to where it says 'After: 24pt.' and kept my line spacing as double. It didn't work. The only thing that happened was that it increased the bottom line spacing even more. How exactly do I fix this? Thanks!! "Suzanne S.

As long as you (a) have short paragraphs and (b) have Widow/orphan control
enabled, you're bound to have some short pages. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Jill" wrote in message ... Hello, Thanks for the link.

Turning off widow and orphan control (in combination with setting the space
after to 0) should give you the uniform page depths you are looking for. Jill wrote: Hello, Thanks for the link. It was quite helpful, but I went back to my word document and highlighted everything.
