Hiding page breaks in Word (web)
Hi,
I'm looking for help trying to hide these page breaks in my Word document. Up until a few days ago, I'd click on the View tab and there was a button to press to hide these virtual breaks. But now the button is gone and I've combed through everything and can't find a way to hide it.
I've tried the 'Show/Hide' button but that doesn't work.

Thanks in advance.

So I open my Word today and bam, the 'Separate Pages' button has mysteriously returned out of nowhere. I take it Microsoft must have updated the web version of Word and put it back. Problem solved I guess.
Hi all,
I wonder if there is a way to share a Word document such that those page breaks are hidden by default to everyone the document is shared to.
Is the option for Separate Pages missing from the View tab in Word online? Are you sure that the document is in editing view?
Stefan_Blom I'm in editing view for sure. There's no option for Separate Pages in the View tab form what I can tell.
This is a user-to-user support forum, not Microsoft, itself.
If you use the desktop application, you can use Web view, which will hide page breaks.
I know of no way to change this in the online version of Word, though.

I understood this is a user-to-user forum, I just tossed it out there to see if someone else had this issue and figured out a fix.
