To remove page breaks manually in Word after a report has been run, follow these steps:

  1. Click Replace or Press Ctrl + H to open the Find and Replace window.
  2. In the Find what field, type ^m (this represents a page break in Word).
  3. Leave the Replace with field empty.
  4. Click Replace All. 

This will remove all page breaks from the document and bring the tables closer together, this is useful when using the ${candidates.pipelineTag.heading.split} key.


Here’s a quick explanation of the two formatting options:

  1. Option 1: One table
    When using the ${candidates.pipelineTag.heading} key, all pipeline statuses are combined into one continuous table. While this eliminates page breaks and empty space, it’s likely not ideal visually.
  2. Option 2: Using the Pipeline Split
    When using the ${candidates.pipelineTag.heading.split} key, Word adds page breaks between the tables, causing the empty space between them. This is the reason for the space, rather than an actual empty page. Although we can’t automatically remove this space, it can be done manually very quickly as outlined above.
