In MS Word, which shortcut inserts a page break?
Answer: C
Correct answer: Ctrl + Enter
Ctrl + Enter inserts a page break, forcing the text that follows onto a new page. It is worth distinguishing from the other break shortcuts. Shift + Enter inserts a line break, which starts a new line within the same paragraph - so paragraph spacing and list numbering are not applied. Ctrl + Shift + Enter inserts a column break in a multi-column layout. Using a page break rather than repeated Enter presses is the important habit: pressing Enter until the text moves over produces blank paragraphs that shift as soon as anything above is edited, whereas a page break holds. Section breaks, inserted from the Layout tab rather than by shortcut, are different again: they allow page orientation, margins, columns and headers to change part way through a document. All of these become visible when formatting marks are shown with Ctrl + Shift + 8.
