how to insert a page within a document

Hi luanne,

It seems you are editing a Page Layout document.

View Menu > Show Thumbnails.

Before inserting a new page, click on the thumbnail of the page you want to be *before* the new page.

If you are editing a Word Processing document, new pages are added automatically to hold new content (as you type or paste).

Regards,

Ian.

To me it seems you have a Word Processng document. Page Layout documents add pages not sections.

I would copy and paste the text where I want it. Text after the pasted one will move down and pages will be added automatically.

Hi fruhulda,

You are right:

So far "Insert" > "sections" > "text page or blank"

Oops 🙂

Regards,

Ian.

Luanne,

When you Insert a Section from the Add Section tool or the Insert Menu, the new section will be inserted directly after the current section, the section that the Insertion Cursor is in, or the Section Selected in the Thumbnails pane.

You can't insert a new section in the middle of an existing section, so it goes at the end of a 1-section document, which is what I would guess you have, a 1-section document. What you probably should do is insert a Section Break at the point where yiu want to add a section or page. Or forget about adding a Section and just Insert a Page Break there.
