= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Word version 4.00, page breaks entered in the middle of absolutely positioned paragraphs are ignored. An absolutely positioned paragraph is created by selecting the paragraph, choosing Position from the Format menu, and then setting a specific placement position. In Galley View (normal view), the page break seems to break the paragraph; however, the page break does not actually break the page in the resulting printout or in Print Preview.

To create a page break in the middle of a positioned paragraph, you must insert a section break that is set to start on a new page.
