How to Insert a Page Break and Duplicate a Page in Pages 5.1

I did not experience any content deletion upon changing a document from a Word Processing to a Page Layout style. I would expect that you WOULD lose content in going the other way, however.

The advantage to a Page Layout style is that ALL content is in separate boxes that are easily manipulated, as opposed to content that is directly on the page and is more cumbersome to move. It's the "PageMaker" style vs. the "Microsoft Word" style.

I was not attempting to go on ad nauseum about how Apple removed features from its iWork suite. We all know that. My post was about how this one particular feature was added back, although hidden, and how to access it.

And if content is deleted, there's always Undo.

Actually, I had an entire page worth of content that didn't change at all, but now that I think about it, that was probably because I had all of my content in boxes.

And I was careful to specify Pages 5.1 in my post heading to avoid confusion. It is VERY WELL documented that Apple removed loads of features in their new iWork apps - including all over this support forum.

Your obvious disdain for Pages 5 notwithstanding, the return of the Page Layout mode is a BIG DEAL to me, as Pages was otherwise just a word processor without it. Prevously, upgrading my Pages 4 documents to Pages 5 would render them un-editable.

So, instead of the seemingly default answer of "delete Pages 5 and use iWork '09" that I saw on just about every post regarding this particular issue, I'm offering a tidbit of information for those who actually want to try and use the current version the way it is.
