MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

If you insert a manual page break (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER or Insert Break) before a paragraph positioned with the Format Position command and formatted with the Format Paragraph “keep follow:” field set to Yes or the “with next” field checked, Microsoft Word for DOS versions 5.0 and 5.5 incorrectly insert a soft page break immediately before the manually inserted page break. This results in a blank page when you print.

To work around this problem, format the positioned paragraph with the Format Paragraph “keep together:” field set to No. Word removes the soft page break from the document.

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
