However, inserting manual page breaks may not turn out to be a good long-term solution either, especially if you find yourself inserting them and then later removing them as your document evolves. Here are the most common ways to find this function: How to insert a manual page break varies, depending your version of Microsoft Word. Then, no matter how you edit the text before it, or even if you do change the margins, font, line spacing or anything else, your special text will always start on a new page.
That will move it to the top of the next page in one simple and reliable step.
Instead of inserting blank lines, manually insert a Page Break right before your special text. Rather than going to all this effort, there are easier ways to deal with this problem.
Even without editing the text in your document, other changes to your document could also move your special text up or down, including modifying the margins, fonts, sizes, line spacing, indents, etc. If you use this technique in more than one place in your document, then any later changes will require you to review and possibly "fix" all of those places by adding or removing blank lines again. Conversely, if you add to your earlier text making it longer, then you'll have too many blank lines in that "fixed" spot, which will move your special text down from the top of the next page, so you'll have to remove some. If you later shorten any of the text in your document above those blank lines, then all the text below will move up, and then your collection of blank lines won't be enough to "push" all of your special text onto the next page, so you'll have to add more. Inserting blank lines (technically they're empty paragraphs) is certainly a quick way to push your text lower down in your document, but it's a "fragile" solution at best. While some of the details are specific to Microsoft Word, the general approach I suggest should work in any word processor, including Microsoft Works, WordPerfect, OpenOffice, NeoOffice, AppleWorks, Apple Pages, etc. Read on for the potential consequences of using this technique, and my advice on better ways to handle this situation. Now that it's no longer split across two pages, the problem is solved, right? To fix this, you do the obvious thing: You click above that special text, and then tap the Enter or Return key on your keyboard a number of times to insert blank lines that "push" that text down until it has moved to the top of the next page. You're working on a document in Microsoft Word, and you notice that it started a new page in an inconvenient place, perhaps in the middle of a paragraph that you would rather be all together on one page.
