Deleting random pages in 100+ page document without losing formatt

[Guest]

Hi,

We do desktop publishing in Word. We need to delete pages here and there
throughout the 100 + page document. Is it possible to do and keep the
remaining pages with the exact same formatting including those remaining
pages to keep the same page numbers, etc.? Thanks.

Not easily, no. Word is designed as text flow software, not page layout
software.

Yes, only if you pay attention though. You'll have to keep track of whether
your'e deleting any section breaks, etc., and replace any you delete.
How complex it will be depends on how complex the document layout is.
Make a copy and start testing is the best method I know of.
