Extra Space with Page Break Before?

Does Word add a few extra points of space before text to which Page Break
Before has been applied? I have noticed that caption styles, for example,
when left to their own devices will sit at the top of the page below the
header where they belong, while the same caption style, when Page Break
Before has been applied, will sit just a few points lower. It's difficult
for me to explain, but I'm hoping someone will get the gist.

Thanks,
Beck

If the style has any Space Before, then this will not be suppressed after a
manual page break (no matter how inserted) as it is after a "soft" page
break unless you enable the Compatibility Option to "Suppress Space Before
after a hard page or column break."
