What should I do if a section of word document text is empty?

Solving the problem of blank paragraphs in Word documents

1. Is there a blank paragraph in the paragraph mark of the document?

Press Ctrl Shift 8 Display paragraph marks. Check the document for blank paragraph marks (¶), they may not show anything. If there are any blank paragraph marks, delete them.

2. Text Format Hiding

Certain text formats (such as blank font) may make text visually invisible. Select an area that appears to be a blank paragraph and try changing the font, font size, or color. If the text reappears, reformat it using visible text formatting.

3. Text is deleted

Paragraphs may contain deleted text, which leaves empty space in the paragraph markup. Check the document for recent edits and try to undo any accidental deletions.

4. Paragraph style issues

Paragraph style can control the format of text, including color and visibility. Select the suspected blank paragraph and check the paragraph style. If the style has a hidden or white font set, change it to a visible style.

5. Corrupted Documents

In some cases, a corrupted document may result in blank paragraphs. Try repairing the document using the following steps:

• Open the document and press F12 to open the Save As dialog box.
• Choose a different file format (e.g. .docx, .doc) and save the document.
• Reopen the repaired document and check whether the blank paragraphs still exist.

6. Paragraph border hiding

Some versions of Word allow users to hide paragraph borders. Check paragraph border settings. If the border is hidden, show it again.

7. Text is covered

Text may be covered by other text or images. Try repositioning the text or image and see if the blank paragraph reappears.
