I've just pasted a long bit of column-width text from a web page into a new Pages document. Ealech line from the original is now formatted with an invisible paragraph break. I'd like to remove all of those particular invisibles, but I can't get Find/Replace to accept a copy/paste of the paragraph symbol - instead it highlights all of the "dot" format symbols that create the spaces between words. Would be grateful for any/all help.
Hi eamon,
Try this:
(Check for a number in the box at the right end of the Search for box. The number is a count of the number of the search item found in the document.)
The click should move the selection fill to the next occurrence of the searched for item, and highlight the fill marker in yellow.

Barry

You are welcome, Eamon.
Thanks for the green checkmark.

Pages Find/Replace tool can also find those paragraph (¶) marks which are just newlines by using \n in the Find field.
