How To Delete A Blank Page At The End Of A Word Document

It can be extremely frustrating if you've finished producing a document in Microsoft Word only to find that you have an extra page you don't need, but you can't delete.
In this video I show you four quick and simple ways to get rid of a stubborn extra page without having to make major changes to any of your document.
You can also use these tips to reduce the overall length of a document if you find your last page only has a few lines of text on it.

[@pietermarres6173]

It's ridiculous that deleting a blank page is this complicated and non-intuitive.

[@TheTechTrain]

+Pieter Marres agreed! Hope it helped solve it for you.

[@twinspirationaj1266]

SO TRUE AAAH

[@bmwd4000]

Thank this video! I watched like 3 prior and none of them could help. How many years has it been, does the programming for Word change all that much? Seriously... I had to change the actual paragraph spacing (3rd step) and set it to 0, because it wasn't apparently set, not even to auto. Windows continued to disproportion the document, thinking that after a table it should randomly insert an undetectable page with no formation. Is this not ridiculous, haha. I think it's "working as intended".

[@NetTubeUser]

Yes, instead of selecting the page in the Navigation tab, the blank page, then hit the DELETE key, and it's done ... NOPE! Why? ... because Microsoft twisted logic, that's why!

[@LorraineSamu]

you are so right!

[@MrBellfit]

[@ericjensen5026]

Thank you! This helped.

[@TheTechTrain]

Thanks, I'm glad it was useful

[@1stvp43]

One more option, the simplest of all, is to just select the hang over line and reduce the font size to the smallest you can, 4. Make sure you select the line and not just click there. It should show as a small width and height. This basically allows the hangover line to fit onto the previous page. Another related way is to be sure there is no spacing after the last paragraph. If so, just change the characteristics of the last paragraph. In the video above, you can see that there is defined spacing after the paragraph that could be eliminated.

[@TheTechTrain]
