Quickly remove all section breaks from document in Word

Author Kelly Last modified

When inserting different headers and footers, or setting different page orientations for a long document, section break is powerful to realize them. However, there is no easy way to delete all sections breaks in Word except manually deleting section break symbols one by one. The Kutools for Word's Remove All Section Breaks in Selected Range utility will help you remove all section breaks from the whole document or a part of document at once.
