Footnote Separator Line
I have too much space between bottom of text and the footnote separator line.
I have already set the footnote format to place footnotes at end of text instead of bottom of page, but this doe snot help. I am using 12 pt Century Schoolbook font. How can I get the space smaller between the last line and the footnote separator line? -- Wally |

Footnote Separator Line
It is usually in the seperator setting. Go to view on your menu toolbar, make
sure you are in normal view, then select footnotes. In footnotes, select seperator - there you can check the setting, i.e may be spacing before the seperator.

Then choose Footnotes from the View menu. Choose Footnote Separator from the dropdown menu on the bottom of the page. With Show/Hide active you'll probably see a couple of pi-like symbols (paragraphs). Delete the ones you can miss. -- Henk57 |

Footnote Separator Line
Thanks for the 2 suggestions, but they didn't solve the problem. I am using
Word 2007. No extra paragraphs show up in Draft view. When I display the footnote separator line in Draft view, only a 2 inch separator shos up. Since this is a dissertation, I have to use double spacing; I suspect that is part of the problem. Any suggestions? -- Wally "Henk57" wrote: Wally;2665866 Wrote: I have too much space between bottom of text and the footnote separator line.

Footnote Separator Line
Format the Separator for Single spacing, no Space Before/After.

Footnote Separator Line
Thanks for all of your suggestions. The footnote separator was already
formatted for single spacing, but still leaves too much space between the last line of text and the separator. Any ideas? By the way, I've talked to Microsoft Word support, and they don't seem to know what to do. -- Wally "Suzanne S.

Your suggestions have helped. The pages look much better. Additionally, I
had some hidden page breaks that were interfering with formatting. Thanks!! -- Wally "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/BottomLine.htm -- Suzanne S.
