How to scroll down multiple screens at a time in word processing?

Question

Hi everyone,

I need to do some data entry work.

Need to add X text every X amount of pages or X amont of lines or X amount of characters.

The reason for this is that I need to cut down an ebook into 100 HTML pages...

I need to do this in MS WORD, Frontpage or Notepad if possible.

I am now using Pg Dn function and CTL V, still it takes too long, I have to press PageDown 6 times in a row, then paste, 6 times in a row then paste...time consuming...

This is what I need to do:

Original text

a
b
c
d
e
f
g

I would need to insert "X" at every 2 lines to get this result:

a
b
x
c
d
x
e
f
x

I hope I'm being clear enough, what I am actually trying to do is insert pagebreaks on every 5 or 6 windows.

Answer 1

Try the following. It is still a lot of manual work, but should make things a little easier.

Change your layout view to page layout, so you see each page as an individual sheet of paper.

Go into the page layout and adjust either the top and bottom margins and/or paper size until each pages displays the number of lines you want.

Now simply go to the bottom of each page and insert your "x"

That will make it easier than counting lines or whatever to know where to put them.

try using the mouse wheel on your mouse
