Blank page at the end of document
Hi, I'm trying to delete the last return of a document and no matter how many
times I select the paragraph mark and delete or backspace, this extra page will not go away. If you could help with the trick to getting rid of the blank last page I would really appreciate it!! Thanks |

Thanks, Jay. The only part of the page you referred me to that applies, is
showing non-printing characters like paragraph return. I've already done that, and the one return on the page just refuses to respond to my delete and backspace commands. There is a footer, but that shouldn't matter right? I can't delete the page 5 (it's a four-page doc) footer without deleteing all the rest of them.

You can't delete the last paragraph mark. Try selecting the paragraph mark
and adjusting the font size to 1. -- Rae Drysdale "giboozul" wrote: Thanks, Jay. The only part of the page you referred me to that applies, is showing non-printing characters like paragraph return.

You certainly can delete the last paragraph if it's an ordinary paragraph
following ordinary text. It's only when it follows a table that you can't delete it; a table hasn't been mentioned here. -- Suzanne S.

If so, try deleting the section break. -- Cheers Robert |

Are there TWO successive paragraph marks at the end - one ending the last
text paragraph, and another solo? If so, you need to delete the SECOND-LAST one. But before you do, apply the formatting of the last text paragraph to the solo ending parag mark. -- TedMi "giboozul" wrote: Hi, I'm trying to delete the last return of a document and no matter how many times I select the paragraph mark and delete or backspace, this extra page will not go away.
