Is there a way to delete all page breaks in one step? Perfect Layout is a wonderful plugin except it adds page breaks that stay in the way of further adjusting.

You can do that using the Edit Filter.

I use a simple .lua script that can be found on the same site as Perfect Layout to remove page breaks (generally after PL inserts them) and it works flawlessly and quickly:
remove page breaks

I have passed that plugin through RGPlua, have restarted Finale, I don't see it. What am I missing?

If it is loaded in RGPLua, I'm not sure why you wouldn't see it. It should be in your Lua Scripts or similar menu.

Sorry, my bad, it was there, I just didn't see it because the name starts with & and I was looking under R.
Thanks for helping! It worked.

No need for LUA:
Selection tool: Select all;Edit/Clear Selected Items/Page breaks.

Either is fine, but the script accomplishes this in one easy step.

Does it default to the whole document? Surely this is something done fairly rarely.
