Default Page Break not being applied

I have somehow created a document that is failing to apply some (but not all)
page breaks. When in Normal View, after 5 pages of text displaying normally I
have a block of 100 lines of text between visible page breaks. Page length is
50. When in Print View, the 50th line is truncated at character 49 (only
halfway across the page) and the remaining text is moved to the next page.
When looking at the Line/Character/Position counters, in Normal View, I can
move the cursor along a line of text and watch the Page Number and Line
Number values change in the middle of the line. So the page break is
recognised, but why is it not applied?
This is hugely annoying - any ideas what is going on here? I do have header
and footers turned on, but I have altered all the settings without success. I
have played with margins, widows/orphans and other page values, I have
created a new document (with different text) from the same template, and have
looked for hidden boxes etc and still I cannot resolve this. Any suggestions
gratefully received.
Thanks,
