• centering text vertically and horizontally within word document

    From Marzipanini@21:1/5 to All on Sat Oct 13 01:35:24 2018
    Hi,

    I am using Word 2016. I am attempting to insert a single sentence on the
    last page of each "section" that is comprised of an odd number of pages.
    (no section brakes are inserted in the document, as they complicate the document page numbering.) I need this sentence to be aligned vertically
    and horizontally on the page, as the only text on the page aside from
    the header and footer. The steps I am taking a
    Highlight text
    Layout Tab
    Click small arrow in lower right corner of Page Setup
    Page Setup Layout Tab
    Section start: New page
    Apply to: Selected sections

    When I do this, the text on the previous page also centers vertically.
    Why? and how do I just center the selected text?

    I have tried Apply to: Selected text. When I do this, word automatically inserts a section break after the centered text. This section break
    complicates the document page numbering.

    Is there a way to center a single sentence, alone on a page, in the
    middle of a document, without centering other text in the document, and
    without adding section breaks? (I was able to accomplish this in
    previous versions of Word without this much effort.)

    Thank you for your help.
