Apr 02, 2018 Short video showing how to delete a section (or page) break in Word on Mac (Apple) (example is a Macbook Pro). It's fairly simple, yet it personally took me some time to find how to do this. Jun 24, 2015 Microsoft Word users may run into this problem from time to time: a blank page either in the middle or at the end of a document that cannot seem to be deleted. You can choose to print only select pages, but that doesn’t exactly solve the problem. Here are some possible steps to delete your unwanted blank page.

In Microsoft Office, you can use passwords to help prevent other people from opening or modifying your documents, workbooks, and presentations. Also, you can use document protection to restrict the types of changes that reviewers can make.

Add protection in your Word document

• In an open document, click File > Info > Protect Document.

  You see the following options.

  • Mark as Final: Make the document read-only.

    When a document is marked as final, typing, editing, commands, and proofing marks are disabled or turned off and the document becomes read-only. The Mark as Final command helps you communicate that you're sharing a completed version of a document. It also helps prevent reviewers or readers from making inadvertent changes to the document.

    When you mark a document as final, Word asks you to save the file. The next time you open it, you will see a yellow MARKED AS FINAL message at the top of the document. If you click Edit Anyway, the document will no longer be marked as final.

  • Encrypt with Password: Set a password for the document. Note: Keep your password in a safe place. If you lose or forget the password, it cannot be recovered.

    When you select Encrypt with Password, the Encrypt Document dialog box appears. In the Password box, type a password, and then type it again when prompted. Important: Microsoft cannot retrieve lost or forgotten passwords, so keep a list of your passwords and corresponding file names in a safe place.

• Restrict Editing: Control what types of changes can be made to the document.

  When you select Restrict Editing, you see these options:

  • Formatting restrictions: This reduces formatting options, preserving a look and feel. Click Settings to select which styles are allowed.

  • Editing restrictions: You control how the file can be edited or you can disable editing. Click Exceptions or More users to control those who can edit.

  • Start enforcement: Click Yes, Start Enforcing Protection to select password protection or user authentication. You can also click Restrict permission to add or remove editors who’ll have restricted permissions.

  • Restrict Permission by People: Use Windows Live ID to restrict permissions.

    Use a Windows Live ID or a Microsoft Windows account to restrict permissions. You can apply permissions via a template that is used by your organization, or you can add permissions by clicking Restrict Access.

• Add a Digital Signature: Add a visible or invisible digital signature.

  Digital signatures authenticate digital information such as documents, email messages, and macros by using computer cryptology. Digital signatures are created by typing a signature or by using an image of a signature to establish authenticity, integrity, and non-repudiation. See the link at the end of this topic to learn more about digital signatures.

In an open document, click File > Info > Protect Document.

You see the following options.

• Remove Mark as Final: When you mark a document as final, Words asks you to save the file. The next time you open it, you will see a yellow MARKED AS FINAL message at the top of the document. If you click Edit Anyway, the document will no longer be marked as final.

• Remove password encryption: To remove password encryption from the document, open the document and enter the password in the Password box. Then click File > Info > Protect Document > Encrypt with Password. Delete the contents of the Password box, click OK, and then save the document again.

• Remove editing restrictions: To remove editing restrictions, click Stop Protection at the bottom of the Restrict Editing pane.

• Remove or change restricted access: To remove or change restricted access, open the file, and then click Change Permission in the yellow bar at the top of the document.

• Remove digital signature: To remove a digital signature, open the file, right-click the signature line, and click Remove Signature. Or, click the arrow next to the signature in the Signatures pane, and then click Remove Signature.

Microsoft Word users may run into this problem from time to time: a blank page either in the middle or at the end of a document that cannot seem to be deleted. Frustrating! You can choose to print only select pages, but that doesn’t exactly solve the problem.

Here are some possible steps to delete your unwanted blank page. The video above will also walk through these steps.

Basic solutions

• The most basic solution: go to your unwanted blank page, click as close to the bottom of the page as you can get, and press your backspace key until the page is removed.
• Go to the VIEW tab, select Navigation Pane in the Show section, select the blank page thumbnail in the left panel, and press your delete key until it is removed.
• Check your sections: Go to the PAGE LAYOUT tab, click the Margins button, and select Custom Margins. Click the Layout tab. In the drop-down menu next to Section start, make sure that New page is selected. Click OK.

Use paragraph symbols

• Detect what’s on the page by displaying paragraph marks and formatting symbols. Look on your blank page to see if there are any symbols, especially the paragraph mark,
  or ¶. Select the symbol and delete it, and you will likely also delete your blank page.
• If your blank page is in the middle of the document, it may be due to a manual page break. With paragraph marks turned on, you will be able to see the page break. Select it and delete it.

Trouble with tables

• If there is a table at the end of your document, Word will automatically insert a paragraph after it, often resulting in a blank page at the end. While you can’t delete this inserted paragraph, you can make it extra small so it doesn’t cause a new page to be displayed. With paragraph marks turned on, select the paragraph symbol and change the font size to 1 point.
• If you still see a paragraph mark on the blank page, change the spacing around it. Select the paragraph symbol, go to the Paragraph section and launch the Paragraph formatting dialog box by clicking the pop-out icon in the lower right corner of the section. On the Indents and Spacing tab, change any spacing before or after the paragraph to 0. Change the Line spacing to 0. Click OK.
• If those two options didn’t work, you can hide the paragraph. Select the paragraph symbol, and launch the Font dialog box by clicking the pop-out icon in the lower-right corner of the Font section on the HOME tab. Select the Hidden check box in the Effects section and click OK.
