Add, delete, or rearrange pages

You add, delete, and rearrange pages differently depending on whether your document is a page layout document or a word-processing document (for example, a letter or report).

Rearrange pages or sections

In a page layout document you can rearrange the pages however you like. Word-processing documents are a little different. Every word-processing document contains one or more sections (a single-page document contains one section). You can rearrange sections, but not pages within a section.

  1. Click View menu button in the toolbar, then choose Show Page Thumbnails.

  2. Select the page or section in the thumbnail view, then drag it to where you want it in the page hierarchy.

    A yellow border appears around the pages in a section.
