Default Keep propotion

Hey i'm in the end of my school year and we are starting on write "blue book"
a book about all the students in my class. We expect to be around 120 pages.
We will write about each student in a seperate document and then copy paste
into the "master" document.

So the question i how do prevent the content moving into the next pages if
we edit the text. A sort of locking different pages in the document.

I will be thrilled if anybody had a solution to this, or maybe had other
suggetions.

Regards Munk

Use Microsoft Publisher or some other desktop publishing software.

Word can do it, but not without a lot of trouble. The problem is that Word
doesn't really know what a page is -- it does repagination on the fly, based
on what the current text is, and what the printer driver tells it about font
widths, margins, etc. You want software that lets you "pour" content into
pre-formatted areas, and that's what Publisher is all about.
