Sections let you set specific page layout and formatting options (such as line numbering, columns, or headers and footers) for different parts of a document. By using sections, for example, you can format the introduction of a report as a single column, and then format the body of the report as two columns. Word treats a document as a single section until you insert a section break.

Document that contains section breaks

  Section formatted as a single column

  Section break that controls the layout and formatting of the preceding section identified by 1

  Section formatted as two columns

  Section break that controls the layout and formatting of the preceding section identified by 3

Each section break controls the layout and formatting of the section previous to the break. For example, if you delete a section break, the text before the break acquires all the formatting of the section that follows the break. In the illustration above, if you delete the first section break (2), the first section is formatted as two columns. The last paragraph mark (¶) in the document controls the section layout and formatting of the last section in the document. If the document does not contain sections, the last paragraph mark controls the layout and formatting of the entire document.

Important: The following procedures assume that you are in print layout view. If you are not in print layout view, on the View menu, click Print Layout.
