How to remove a page?

Post by chuxter »

I reformatted my document and have an extra [blank] page at the end. I have searched everywhere without finding an answer. I simply want to remove that blank page at the end.

I must apologize. This question should have been directed to TextMaker forum.

Are you sure there is no additional page break or empty paragraph at the end of your document? By clicking the button with the paragraph sign in the icon bar you can make them visible.

Thanks. That approach showed me the problem. It would be nice to have the "Help" file return your answer when user searches for "Delete Page".

I did not know what the "paragraph icon" was for. When searching for "paragraph icon", Help doesn't tell me. The TextMaker Manual does not have the term "paragraph icon". I guessed that it was for creating a new paragraph and marking old paragraphs, since when I clicked on it, paragraph Icons appeared in my document. There is a small drop-down when mousing over the button, but it is less informative than the one with Word.

Thanks for your help.

Anno 2025

I have the same question and the same comment.
How do I delete a page in TextMaker?
I realize it is not as simple as in Flexipdf Home | (Pages) | Delete

And I can not find it in the manual of TextMaker (delete page, Remove pages).

Please assist.

Where is the page you want to remove? If it is an empty page at the end of the document (as in the original post), it may be sufficient to set the cursor at the end of the document and press the delete backwards key. If he page sits somewhere in the middle of the document, it is not so easy. Whereas a PDF document has fixed pages which can be handled separately, a TextMaker document hasn’t. Basically, it is a single continuous text stream which is divided into pages automatically (unless you have set a manual page break). So the standard procedure would be to select all of the text on the page and cut or delete it. If this doesn’t help, a sample document would be helpful.
