Final sentence on a page is broken by page #
Not on every page, but once in a while, the last sentence on a page
will have a space in the middle, as if it is trying to make room for the page number below it. Now, I've tried double-clicking on the page number and moving the page number down the page a bit, but this doesn't seem to cure the problem. I can move the last sentence to the next page and usually this takes care of it. But it's a hassle. Often I have to backspace the moved sentence to get it to begin in the right spot on the page. And of course, it sometimes moves the final sentence on the next page into position to create the same problem again! I tried Format/Paragraph/Line and Page Breaks/Page break before pagination, but that didn't seem to do the trick. There's obviously a simple answer to this perplexing problem that probably involves limiting where the last sentence of a page will be, but I haven't figured it out. Thanks, Clif |

Hi Clif,
If you used Insert Page Number instead of the button on the Header/Footer toolbar, then the page number is enclosed in a frame, and the frame is probably what's causing your problem. The best solution is to get rid of the frame, which is unneeded. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...lyIndented.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org alamodoc wrote: Not on every page, but once in a while, the last sentence on a page will have a space in the middle, as if it is trying to make room for the page number below it.
