How do I stop footnotes from breaking across pages?
I have a 65 page thesis that I will soon send to my advisors in Word 2002. I
am unhappy with the way Word arranges footnotes. It will split even small footnotes accross several pages; I had a 3 line footnote with one line on each of 3 consecutive pages. Can I control how Word arranges footnotes at the bottom of a page? Can I force it to keep certain footnotes together instead of splitting them across several pages? Thanks for your help. |

Answer: How do I stop footnotes from breaking across pages?
Yes, you can control how Word arranges footnotes at the bottom of a page and force it to keep certain footnotes together instead of splitting them across several pages. Here's how:
This will ensure that footnotes are kept together on the same page and not split across multiple pages. If you have a particularly long footnote that still needs to be split across pages, you can adjust the "Footnote height" setting in the same dialog box to allow for more space on the page.
