Ive read many of the posts related to Print Layout View but I have not seen
an answer or solution to this:

Words definition of the Print Layout View is €œView the document as it will
appear on the printed page.€� However, we have found many instances where
page breaks occur at fairly different places on the Print Layout View then
the do in Print Preview or a hard copy. These are simple documents €“ no
section breaks, no hard page breaks €“ just the €œnormal€� page breaks when text
flows from one page to another.

Weve already been through all the line and page breaks functionality, the
widow/orphan control and understand how all those work. We would just like
to know why a page break in Print Layout View might occur 2 or 3 lines above
or below where it does in Print Preview and how to correct it.

Have you got the non-printing characters displayed in Print Layout View?

Yes, they are.

Well, that would be the explanation, then, especially if you have any XE
fields (index entries).

No so fast. I have what seems to be the same problem when the XE
fields are hidden. I edited a book manuscript to 360 pages in Word
2003 (after much battling with the layout and tweaking all the fine
features such as paragraph and section settings that control layout)
and then switched to show hidden text view to edit a single index
entry. When I switched back to hide the XE entries, word repaginated
and came up with 366 pages. Now I can't get it to correct the
repagination back to 360 pages. I had similar problems before and
fought awhile with layout, then word "spontaneously" compactified the
pagination and got me back to the page count I wanted. Is there any
way to force this compactification to kick in?
