FM 11: I do not know how to delete empty pages

I inadvertently copied too much data from one FM document to another. I discovered that I did this only after making further changes in the second document, so I was unable to undo the copy/paste operation. Deleting the unwanted text has left my document with more than 80 empty pages that I am unable to delete.

i tried copying only the text I still needed from the second document, deleting everything in the document, and pasting the needed data back in, but the empty pages persist.

How do I solve this problem?

    Try:

    1. Format > Page Layout > Pagination
      Make sure Before Saving & Printing is set to:
      [ Delete Empty Pages ]

    2. Format > Page Layout > Apply Master Pages
      [ OK ]
      You may get a harmless "Master Page Mapping table does not exist"

    3. File > Save
