Word 2010 - Adding Breaks

Breaks

Breaks allow you to have more control over the layout of your document. 

How To insert a break:

1. Place the insertion point where you want the break to appear.
2. Select the Page Layout tab.
3. Click the Breaks command. A menu appears.
   
4. Click the desired break option to create a break in the document.

How To delete a break:

Breaks are hidden by default. If you want to delete a break, you'll probably want Word to show the breaks so you can find them for editing.

1. From the Home tab, click the Show/Hide ¶ command.
   
2. Double-click the break to select it.
   
3. Press the Backspace or Delete key to delete the break.
