large amount of extra space before page breaks?
In word 2003, one Word file with text that I got from another source has
large amounts of extra space before every page break, and I cannot figure out why. It does not seem to be a footer with paragraph marks, I checked that, or a header?? In page setup, the margins are all one inch, but in page setup it shows it with 2/3 of a page and lots of space at the bottom. every page. Is there a pagebreak control? any ideas. thanks, JF |

Check the formatting of the paragraphs that begin the pages. On the Line and
Page Breaks tab of Format | Paragraph, see if "Page break before" or "Keep with next" is checked. Also, if you'll display text boundaries (Tools | Options | View) you won't need to guess whether the space is in the footer or the document body. -- Suzanne S.

thanks. It was the "keep lines together" in the paragraph format tab in my normal style. Hard to find ...... "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Check the formatting of the paragraphs that begin the pages.

The clue is the little black box in the left margin adjacent to the
paragraphs with Keep Lines Together applied. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "removing all headers and footers" t.com wrote in message ... thanks.
