How to Add page(s) to Text Document?

[FF]

Sounds like a simple question... but I'm tearing my hair out!

I'm creating a text document with photos. I can't get beyond one page!

How do I add a second (or third...) page??_______

Haven't found anything intuitive like "Insert Page before/after current page", for example, or a means of specifying the number of pages I want for the document. Am I missing something??

Thanks!

I assume you're inserting pictures that are anchored to something other than text, which are therefore not generating page breaks when you get to the bottom. If so, there's the old standby of just hitting return until a new page is generated. You can also use Cmd-Return to insert a hard page break, which will generate a new page; that's "cleaner" than just hitting return since you don't have a lot of useless returns running around in your document.

However, if your content is mostly pictures and not text (and you don't expressly need to create a document that MS Word users can read), might I suggest using Draw instead of Writer? It seems like it's better set up for the task you appear to be performing (and has a command for adding new pages, the confusingly-named "Slide" menu item in the "Insert" menu).

Moved to the NeoOffice Support forum so that more support volunteers might see it.

Thanks for the tip. I am pasting pictures, no text.

I did discover that Insert>Manual Break did create another blank page. So I seem OK for now.
