Creating a full page document from a ragged one.
I have just downloaded long PDF document which shows as only covering half the page from left to right. I could create full pages by using return a thousand or so times but I wonder if there is a simpler way to fix my problem. |

First, converted documents are ALWAYS a pain to edit. My preference is to paste the text as unformatted text in a new document and do my own formatting.
See Cleaning Up Pasted Text by Suzanne Barnhill, MVP Lastly, do NOT use the Enter key for vertical spacing in a document. 2.2 Why you should press Enter only once to end a paragraph |

All the more reason not to paste as unformatted text. Those 'unwanted' features at least preserve the basic appearance of the source and usually can easily-enough be cleaned up afterwards. Moreover, when pasting as unformatted text, hyperlinks, images and content in frames etc. are all lost.

You can use your method, I will stick with mine. I am aiming for a document that can easily be edited in Word. My method gives me that.
I still have the pdf/web page to look at and can usually match the formatting easily without those frames and section breaks. I can copy and paste images back in. |
