Hi Elise,

you could move spreads around in the Pages panel or with a command in the main Layout menu.

Before you do this make sure that text frames on that spread are not threaded with other text frames on other threads.

 

About "wierd" characters from copied text from Word files:

Show a screenshot with some text with hidden characters so that we can understand better what the problem is.

 

Regards,
Uwe Laubender

its kind of hard to explain but as seen in the first image with title 'encourage support of others' theirs a space between the title and the text and when i go backspace to delete the space it just appears on the 'encourage support of others' line, but i want it like it is in 'encourage professional  support'

 

hopefully this makes sense.

You should always work with the hidden characters to be able to see multiple paragraph returns (which is a very bad way to get space between paragraphs), and soft breaks.

First, click on the icon at the bottom of the tool bar and choose to display the document in “normal” view. Then if you do not see the hidden characters, type command alt I to display them.

What do you mean “there are no hidden characters”? You can't display them? Are you in “normal” view? Hidden caharacters are spaces, paragraph returns and other non printing characters.

I also have a Mac and the option key is also named alt (on extended keyboard). The shortcut is not option I but option command I, or go in the text menu > show hidden characters (the very last line of the menu)
