Here’s the big secret about paragraph formatting. People who don’t know the secret are baffled by certain behavior in Word.

Paragraph formatting is stored in the paragraph return. If you delete a paragraph return at the end of a paragraph, your paragraph may suddenly take on the formatting of the following paragraph. (If this is a surprise to you, you’ll want to learn about section breaks storing page formatting by reading up on section breaks on page 13-1.)

It is safer to place your cursor in front of the paragraph return and use the backspace key, or to copy and paste text in front of the paragraph return.
