<p>Section breaks allow you to apply different layouts or formatting styles to a certain part of your document. For example, you can use individual <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertHeadersFooters.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">headers and footers</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertPageNumbers.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">page numbering</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/InsertFootnotes.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">footnotes format</a>, <ahref="../UsageInstructions/SetPageParameters.htm"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">margins, size, orientation, or column number</a> for each separate section.</p>
<li>click the <imgalt="Breaks icon"src="../images/pagebreak1.png"/><b>Breaks</b> icon on the <b>Insert</b> or <b>Layout</b> tab of the top toolbar,</li>
<p>The added section breaks are indicated in your document with a double dotted line: <imgalt="Section break"src="../images/sectionbreak.png"/></p>
<p>If you do not see the inserted section breaks, click the <imgalt="Nonprinting Characters icon"src="../images/nonprintingcharacters.png"/> icon on the <b>Home</b> tab of the top toolbar to display them.</p>
<p>To remove a section break, select it with the mouse and press the <b>Delete</b> key. Since a section break defines formatting of the previous section, when you remove a section break, this section formatting will also be deleted. When you delete a section break, the text before and after the break is combined into one section. The new combined section will use the formatting from the section that followed the section break.</p>
