Format Break Document For Free

Section breaks enable you to split a document into several sections, enabling you to apply different formatting and layouts to each section. For instance, having two sections in a document enables one section to have portrait orientation and the other to have landscape orientation.

1) Click at the beginning of the text that will begin the new section 2) Click on the Layout tab 3) Click on Breaks 4) Under Section Breaks click Continuous Page 3 3 Selecting Continuous will allow the text to remain on the same page, yet be a separate section. The document is now divided into two sections.

Word automatically adds a break at the end of each page. You can also insert a manual page break anytime you want to start a new page in your document. Put your cursor where you want one page to end and the next to begin. Go to Insert > Page Break.

Add and format text Select the text you want to format. To select a single word, double-click it. To select a line of text, click to the left of it. Select an option to change the font, font size, font color, or make the text bold, italic, or underline.

Page breaks are used to end a page without filling it with text. To make sure the title page of your thesis/dissertation is separate from the signature page, for example, insert a page break after the graduation date on the title page.

You can use section breaks to change the layout or formatting of pages in your document. To change formatting in a document, insert a section break at the beginning of where you want the change. Set up the formatting change just past the new section break.

By default, Word documents are created with a single section and therefore any formatting will be applied to the entire document. But by inserting section breaks, you are able to split a document into two or more sections, which allows you to apply different formatting or page layout to individual sections.
