Page Break

I don’t really understand this.
With the page break preview, I could move around all the page breaks to have the document print exactly how I want.

How do I do this now???

Do I have to play around with all of the settings by trial and error to get the layout I want?

Did this function get more difficult with this upgrade? Seems odd.

You can insert and delete manual page breaks in Page Layout view and see
the results immediately.

It's not as convenient as dragging the page breaks. I suspect MS's
usability studies indicated that not many people were using this feature
(which is the only real advantage to that view).

Use Help/Send Feedback... to let them know why it's important to your
productivity to reinstate that view.

Thank you - I just sent a long exasperated email to the send feedback page. I hope they listen. I can't believe that there is no page break preview for excel for mac. I am just livid! I worked long and hard on a form on my PC and it just doesn't work on the mac b/c it's spread accross 2 pages, and there is nothing I can do about it. Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!

Of course you can do something about it!

Page Break Preview might have made it EASIER to set the page scaling,
but dragging the page break in that view just adjusts the scaling factor
- which you can do on the Page Setup dialog's Page pane.

To get a two-pager to fit to one, it's easier to just choose Fit to: 1
page(s) wide, and leave the 'tall' box blank.
