I recently downloaded the Microsoft Office 11 for Macs, and am loving it. I especially like the notebook layout in Word, with the different binder tabs. However, I can not figure out how to add a new page within a tab. I am a college student using this app to take notes during class. For example, I have one tab for each class, and would ideally like to be able to start a new "page" at the beginning of each lecture or new topic. As of now, all I can do is type endlessly down one never ending page. Is there a way to "turn" pages, or just create a new one?

Thanks for your help!

The file format use with Word for Windows is the same as Word for Mac. Documents can be opened by either platform. Word for Mac has features that are not yet in Word for Windows. Here's what you need to be aware of: Notebook Layout View. This view is used for taking notes. You record audio and type along with the audio. Your typing is synchronized with the audio. Word for Windows does not have this feature. If you save a document in Notebook Layout View on a Mac, then open it in Word for Windows, Word for Windows will display the text in Page Layout view, but not the audio notes. It will be as if the audio isn't there. Publishing Layout View: This view is used to layout pages in newspaper/magazine format. It has its own masters, and makes it easy to lay out a publication with linked text boxes. Word for Windows does not have Publishing Layout View. When opened in Word for Windows, the document will look fine, but will open in Page Layout View. Advanced Typography: This is a great, but hidden feature in Word for Mac. To use it, you have to go to the Ribbon preferences and turn it on. Some unicode fonts come with many extra fancy "glyphs" or typefaces built into the font. The Advanced Typography feature lets you take advantage of those extras. Several fonts are installed with Microsoft Office on both Mac and the PC that include these extras. Cambria and Gabriola come to mind. If you use Advanced Typography on a document on your Mac, when opened on a PC the advanced typography will display as you made it on your Mac. But the PC won't be able to do any fancy stuff with Advanced Typography because it doesn't have this feature. All other features in Word should the same on the Mac as on the PC. You don't have to convert your iPod. Just plug it into your Mac.

Some users have reported this issue as well here: http://forums.circusponies.com/categories/8/posts/11251



According to one user, NoteBook doesn’t work that way. Each page is endlessly long. Therefore it is not possible to create page breaks.



In fact, this is one of the top requested features of the Notebook Layout. Perhaps you could send an email to Microsoft asking them to implement this feature?
