How do you insert a page break in Word?

• A. Insert tab -> Page Break, or Ctrl+Enter.
• B. Layout tab -> Page Break, or Ctrl+P.
• C. Break -> Section Break.
• D. Home tab -> Page Break, or Ctrl+B.

Answer: (A)

In Word, a page break is used to move the content after the cursor to the next page without changing any formatting. The easiest way to do this is to go to the Insert tab and choose Page Break, or simply press Ctrl+Enter. This creates a clean break where the next content starts at the top of the next page. The other paths don’t achieve a simple page break: opening Page Break from the Print dialog (Ctrl+P) starts the print process, not a break; inserting a Section Break changes formatting across a new section rather than just starting a new page; and the Home tab doesn’t provide a Page Break command, while Ctrl+B applies bold formatting, not a page break.
