Set pagination and line and page breaks in Pages on Mac. You can use formatting to control how text flows on the page. Line break: Use a line break, also called a soft return, to start a new line without starting a new paragraph. Some more savvy Excel users know that you can break text onto multiple lines in a cell by pressing Alt+Enter mid entry. Today’s post explores how we can split by line breaks in order to break these types of cell contents into multiple columns. Microsoft Excel 2016 is the spreadsheet application in the MS Office 2016 suite. Get help organizing and calculating data in this Excel 2016 tutorial.

Page breaks are dividers that break a worksheet into separate pages for printing. Microsoft Excel inserts automatic page breaks based on the paper size, margin, settings, scale options, and the positions of any manual page breaks that you insert. To print a worksheet with the exact number of pages that you want, you can adjust the page breaks in the worksheet before you print it.

Tips:

• Although you can work with page breaks in Normal view, we recommend that you use Page Break Preview view to adjust page breaks so that you can see how other changes that you make ( such as page orientation and formatting changes) affect the automatic page breaks. For example, you can see how a change that you make to the row height and column width affects the placement of the automatic page breaks.
  
• To override the automatic page breaks that Excel inserts, you can insert your own manual page breaks, move existing manual page breaks, or delete any manually-inserted page breaks. You can also quickly remove all the manually-inserted page breaks. After you finish working with page breaks, you can return to Normal view.

1. Click the worksheet that you want to print.
   
2. On the View tab, in the Workbook View group, click Page Break Preview.
   
   You can also click Page Break Preview on the status bar.
   
3. Do one of the following:
   
• To insert vertical page break, select the row below where you want to insert the page break.
  
• To insert a horizontal page break, select the column to the right of where you want to insert the page break.
  
4. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click Breaks.
   
5. Click Insert Page Break.
   You can also right-click the row or column below or to the right of where you want to insert the page break, and then click Insert Page Break.
   If manual page breaks that you insert do not take effect, it may be that the Fit To scaling option has been selected on the Page tab of the Page Setup dialog box (Page Layout tab, Page Setup group, Dialog Box Launcher). To use the manual page breaks, change the scaling to Adjust to instead.

1. To verify that drag-and-drop is enabled, do the following:
   
• Click the File tab > Options.
  
• In the Advanced category, under Editing options, select the Enable fill handle and cell drag-and-drop check box then click OK.
  
2. Click the worksheet that you want to modify.
   
3. On the View tab, in the Workbook Views group, click Page Break Preview.
   You can also click Page Break Preview on the status bar.
   
4. To move a page break, drag the page break to a new location.
   Note: Moving an automatic page break changes it to a manual page break.

1. Select the worksheet that you want to modify.
   
2. On the View tab, in the Workbook Views group, click Page Break Preview.
   You can also click Page Break Preview on the status bar.
   
3. Do one of the following:
   
• To delete a vertical page break, select the column to the right of the page break that you want to do delete.
  
• To delete a horizontal page break, select the row below the page break that you want to delete.
  Note: You cannot delete an automatic page break.
  
4. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click Breaks.
   
5. Click Remove Page Breaks.
   You can also remove a page break by dragging it outside of the page break preview area (to the left past the row headers, or up past the column headers). If you cannot drag page breaks, mane sure that the drag-and-drop feature is enabled.

1. Click the worksheet that you want to modify.
   
2. On the View tab, in the Workbook Views group, click Page Break Preview.
   You can also click Page Break Preview on the status bar.

4. Click Reset All Page Breaks.
   Note: You can also right-click any sell on the worksheet, and then click Reset All Page Breaks.
   
   

• After working with page breaks in Page Break Preview view, you may still see the page breaks in Normal view because page breaks have been turned on automatically. To hide the page breaks, close and reopen the workbook without saving it.
  
• Page breaks remain visible when you close and reopen the workbook after saving it. To turn them off, click the File tab, click Options, and click the Advanced category, scroll down tot he Display options for this worksheet section, and clear the Show page breaks check box.

Some more savvy Excel users know that you can break text onto multiple lines in a cell by pressing Alt+Enter mid entry. Today’s post explores how we can split by line breaks in order to break these types of cell contents into multiple columns.

To start with, let’s set up some simple data:

• In cell A2, type “Text” and press Enter
• In cell A3 type “This” –> Alt + Enter –> “is” –> Alt + Enter –> “text” –> Enter

The result should look like this:

And now we’ll go and pull it in to Power Query:

• Select the data –> create new query –> From Table

At this point, you’d certainly be forgiven for thinking that only the first line was pulled in. But if you select the cell, you’ll see in the preview window that all the data is there:

So let’s try and split it up.

• Right click the Text column –> Split Column –> By Delimiter

Unfortunately, there is no line break or carriage return option in the dialog, which means that you’ll need to pick “Custom”, and enter the special character for a Line Feed:

Even worse, with entering this, Power Query is overly aggressive when you click OK. It assumes that this is special text, so escapes it to text, and appends some commands that actually mess you up:

Notice how we have two columns with nothing in the second. What gives there?

To correct this code, we need to modify the formula in the formula bar to do two things:

1. Undo the escaping that Power Query did on our #(lf) entry, and
2. Remove the code that is telling which columns to import

So first, we need to replace:

'#(#)(lf)'

with

'#(lf)'

And second, we need to remove this completely:

,{'Text.1', 'Text.2'}

And the results are much better:

The bad news is that currently it’s a bit painful to do this. The good news is that it can be done, and the better news is that Power Query is constantly being updated. I’m sure it won’t be long before they give us an easier to use/more discoverable mechanism to make this work.

Should you need them, here are three special characters that you can refer to in Power Query:
