I'm editing a document in "normal" (nonprinting) view. How do I see

"Nonprinting Characters" would show it, but it only shows paragraph
market, not anything for hard return. There isn't anything under
Styles
and Formatting either that I can find that shows the presence of the
hard page break.
Normal? There are two view choices, Print and Web layout. If you are
referring to Web layout then I do not understand as web pages do _NOT_
have page breaks. Please explain.
I think that the OP is comparing OOo with MSO. In the latter it is
possible to see on screen where manual page breaks have been
inserted: in OOo this does not seem possible, creating some editing
difficulties.

In OOo, a hard page break <ctrl-Enter> is indicated by a dark line at
the top margin of the new page.
Thanks for that, Matt. Now that I know it's there I can almost see it!
Of course Text Boundaries have to be on and my ancient eyes can barely
differentiate between the darker (very slightly) top boundary line and
the side ones.
I still think there should be some indication of a hard page break,
even when text boundaries are off. I'll give some thought to raising
an issue for this.
I for one agree. If only that line could be made wider - or dotted or
dashed - it would be a lot more recognizable.
