Word documents are split into pages by default. How do I remove the page breaks and make my document 1 continuous page?
Example of a page break (circle 1):
Double-click the page break so that it's selected, and then press Delete.
You can't remove automatic page breaks, but you can prevent them from landing in awkward places, such as between lines of text you'd like to keep together. You can adjust the page break settings for selected paragraphs. Select the paragraphs you want to apply the settings to. On the Format menu, select Paragraph.
From the File tab, select Options. Click the Display tab. In the section Always show these formatting marks on the screen, un-check everything except Object Anchors. Press OK.
The new page is created to prevent footnotes (or endnotes) from two different sections of the document from being displayed on the same page. The continuous section break is sometimes used to change the number of columns that appear on a single page.
Depends on what you exactly mean:
-If you don't want page breaks to appear on the screen, select "View" --> "Web Layout". Page breaks do still exist, but you don't see them anymore.
-If you want to 'delete' all "manual page breaks" in a document (page breaks usually added by hitting "Ctrl+Enter"), replace "^12" with "" (empty string).
So, hit Ctrl+H, at "Find what" type ^12, leave "Replace with" empty, and then hit "Replace all".
