Hi everyone, I'm currently struggling with a Word "feature" I've never encountered before. The issue occurs when a footnote is too long to fit on one page and continues onto the next.
In one particular footnote, two blank lines appear in the middle of the footnote text. I can't place the cursor in these lines, nor can I delete them using either the Delete or Backspace key.
Interestingly, when I move the entire footnote text so that it no longer spills over onto the next page, the two blank lines disappear.
I've also tried copying the entire footnote text into a plain text editor to remove all formatting, then pasting it into a new footnote. However, as soon as the footnote continues onto the next page, the two blank lines reappear.
I have several other footnotes in my document that span multiple pages, but they all break correctly without any unwanted blank lines.
I've attached a screenshot to illustrate the issue.
Thanks in advance for your help!
