Working with the Drawing Canvas--deleting a blank last page

[kondilemma]

I have read the following article that talks about the blank page issue--

http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/BlankPage.htm

My question is, does Word treat the Drawing Canvas the same as tables in a
document? That is, Word insists on putting a paragraph mark at the end and
will not let you delete it? If so, the workaround described in the document
above should apply?
I have a one page flowchart , complete with footer/header--if I resize it to
fit all on the first page, will that not also solve the problem?


Thanks,

Note that the correct link for that article (to which you were redirected)
is http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/BlankPage.htm. I would think that this
would be a slighty different situation. A drawing canvas is In Line With
Text by default (and can be made so if it's not), so the paragraph mark of
the paragraph it is in would be the last one in the document. Even if the
drawing canvas is wrapped, the paragraph mark to which it is anchored could
be behind the canvas, so it shouldn't throw an extra page.
