Answer 1

Dear ראול קליין,

Sorry for my late reply, I noticed that you seem to be using Word2003? We don't have this version at the moment, and it seems that we no longer support this version.

Sorry, the new version does have some differences in layout from the old version. You can refer to the following methods to see if you can alleviate your problem:

1. Show formatting marks:

Click the "Tools" menu on the toolbar and select "Options".

In the dialog box that pops up, go to the "View" tab.

Check the "All Characters" option and click "OK". This will allow you to see formatting marks such as spaces and paragraph marks.

If this option does not work, you may need to manually find a similar option. Or try pressing Ctrl + * (because * requires pressing Shift + 8, so this command may require you to press Ctrl + Shift + 8, 8 on the main keyboard) to see if this feature can be turned on.

2. Find the cause of the blank page:

Usually, a blank page may be caused by too many paragraph marks or spaces at the end. You can carefully check whether there are extra paragraph marks (¶) or spaces on the last page.

3. Delete extra paragraph marks: If you see extra paragraph marks, select them with your mouse and press the Delete or Backspace key to delete them. You may need to use Delete to delete paragraph marks and Backspace to delete blank lines and spaces.

I hope the above information is helpful to you. If you encounter any problems, please feel free to let me know.

Answer 3

Dear ראול קליין,

Hello! Welcome to the Microsoft Community. I'm glad to be able to assist you. If I misunderstand your question, please let me know promptly.

I understand that your Word document has 96 pages, but it actually displays 100 pages. I understand the trouble this problem has caused you, and I will try my best to help you solve it.

First, you can go to the "Home tab" of Word, find the following icon, and open it.

You should then be able to see any carriage returns, line feeds, page breaks, etc. Check your last few pages to see if there are any blank lines or other symbols and try to delete them. Once the blank lines are deleted, the extra pages should disappear. If you still can't delete the pages, you can check out the following resources.

For more information, please refer to: Delete a blank page - Microsoft Support

If you have any other situation or the above methods do not solve your problem, please contact me in time and tell me your current Word version and account type.

I hope the above information is helpful. If you have any progress or questions, please let me know.

Best Wishes
