/en/word2016/columns/content/ What break option starts a new section on the same page?The Continuous command inserts a section break and starts the new section on the same page. A continuous section break is useful to create format changes such as a different number of columns on a page.
What is the biggest difference between section breaks and regular page breaks?The page breaks partition only the body text of the document, whereas the section breaks partition both the body text of the document, as well as partition page margins, headers and footers, page numbers, and the like.
What are the 4 types of section breaks?There are four different types of section breaks that you can insert. They are “Next Page,” “Continuous,” “Odd Page,” and “Even Page.” A “Next Page” section break inserts a page break, but also creates two separate sections of the document so that each section can have its own unique page layout.
Why does section Break create a new page?The new page is created to prevent footnotes (or endnotes) from two different sections of the document from being displayed on the same page. The continuous section break is sometimes used to change the number of columns that appear on a single page.
