page break, forced indent
Every paragraph in my document that is broken across a page has the first line of the second page text indented by appro 5 characters. How do I remove this indentation?
Example: paragraph text[eol] paragraph text[eol] paragraph text[eol][page break] [indent]paragraph text[eol] paragraph text[eol] New paragraph starts at the top of a page are not so indented. Any help/advice would be appreciated. Last edited by alabamatoy : April 11th 09 at 02:37 PM |

A page break also breaks the paragraph. If your paragraph style has a
first-line indent, then you will need to apply an unindented style to the paragraph after the page break. -- Suzanne S.

Well, you do understand that a page break within a paragraph is also a
paragraph break? Are you sure that the new paragraph on the new page doesn't have a first-line indent? If you were seeing this on every page, I'd suggest the problem might be the one described at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...lyIndented.htm. Conceivably it could still be, but with a text box/frame anchored on the page rather than to the header. -- Suzanne S.
