I have a large document that on one of the pages which starts with Heading 1
style at the top of the page has a different spacing from the header than the
rest of the Heading 1 styles that begin at the top of the page throughout the
document. When I highlight this particular heading it doesn't show the 12
spaces before (which is part of the style formatting) and this does show in
all the other Heading 1's that start at the top of the page. Even when I try
to add more space before manually Word won't let me. It seems to jump back to
no space before. This is in page layout view. However, when I go to normal
view the space before shows. When I print the document it is the only heading
1 that is not consistent with the rest of the Heading 1's in the document.
It's not in a separate section. Anyone know why this is happening and how to
fix it. This document needs to look perfect.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Dee

Space Before is suppressed at the top of a page except after a manual page
or column break or a section break. I suspect that the other Heading 1s
follow a manual page break. If this isn't obvious, it may be that they are
formatted as "Page break before" and this one isn't.
