[ISO/IEC 29500-1 1st Edition]

17.15.1.35 doNotDisplayPageBoundaries (Do Not Display Visual Boundary For Header/Footer or Between Pages)

This element specifies whether applications displaying this document should display the contents of the header and footer when displaying the document in print layout view (§17.15.1.92) or should collapse those areas as well as the whitespace on all displayed pages so that the text extents are directly following one another. [Rationale: Collapsing the ends of pages makes it easier to read the contents of the document, since the text flows between pages without whitespace, while maintaining the WYSIWYG functionality of print layout view for the document's main content. end rationale]

If this element is omitted, then all pages should be shown at their full size (including whitespace and headers/footers) when they are displayed in print layout view.

[Example: Consider the images below illustrating two pages in a WordprocessingML document:

DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing.DoNotDisplay

If document must automatically have whitespace between pages removed when it is displayed, that requirement would be specified using the following WordprocessingML in the document settings:

<w:doNotDisplayPageBoundaries w:val="true" />

The resulting output might look like the following:

DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing.DoNotDisplay

The doNotDisplayPageBoundaries element has its val attribute equal to true, therefore the document is automatically displayed with whitespace between text extents on following pages compressed, allowing the pages to be viewed more easily. end example]
