Spaces after footnotes
Hi Suzanne,
Thanks for your suggestion. I already had the footnotes set to Bottom of page. I fiddled with the bottom page margin and that helped. I checked the footer and it does not appear to be overlapping with the white space. I still however have a white space of about 1-1.5 lines which should not be there given the margin setting. Graeme.

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/BottomLine.htm, but if the space is
actually below the footnotes and not above, then the article may not help, as it sounds as if something else is going wrong. -- Suzanne S.

Spaces after footnotes
Don't know all that you've explored, but if there is anything in the footer
area, make sure that the footer spacing (From edge: Footer) in Page Setup - Layout tab is not set larger than needed. The other setting that might be giving you too much space is if the footnote's paragraph After spacing is set too high (Format - Paragraph - After), or if the line spacing has a multiple setting (Format - Paragraph - Line spacing). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Pascal" pascalvalois[at]hotmail.com wrote in message ...

Thanks Herb. Just to be sure, I went through the procedures you gave but
they're all normal. The blank space appeared while I was working on the format of the tables in my document. The spacing kept increasing. Thanks in advance.

The more I hear, the more I think the document may be corrupt; see
