How to remove merge format in Word?

Solved
Hello,

I currently have a problem with one of my Word documents: one page (yes, just one) displays the text "mergeformat 2" in place of the page number. This issue occurs when I export my document to PDF or when I enter the footer. I haven't made any section breaks or page breaks, but this message appears. I saw in response to other questions that I should press "Alt+F9," but when I do, it changes the appearance of my page numbers throughout the document but doesn't solve my problem.

Do you have another solution?
Thanks in advance for your answers!

  1. Sorry to bother you, I solved my problem by adding a section break before the problematic page (I don't know why, but it worked; that was all I needed!)
