Adding Page Breaks

Define which areas should be printed on which pages.

Prerequisites

You have opened a diagram. You can edit page breaks in the Page Layout tab.

Context

There are two ways to add page breaks:

  • Ribbon

    If a page break is added to the diagram from the ribbon, it is added centered between the page break furthest to the right (vertical) and/or the furthest below (horizontal) and the marginal strip to the right (vertical) and/or below (horizontal).

    You are not allowed to insert a page break via the ribbon if there is not enough space.

  • Context Menu

    Use the mouse pointer to choose where the page break should be added.

How to proceed

  1. Place the mouse pointer where the page break should be inserted.

    If the command is deactivated, this means that a new break cannot be inserted at this point. Choose another point in the diagram which allows for more space between page breaks.

  2. Select Horizontal page break or Vertical page breakin the context menu.

    A new horizontal page break is inserted where the mouse pointer is when the context menu was called.
