macOS 11.7 Big Sur, Pages 12.1

I'm working with a text document in Pages, converted from a PDF by the very useful Online PDF Tools (https://www.i2pdf.com). It was in landscape letter-size format; I'm redoing it as portrait half-letter size. Each page has a half page of text, followed by a section break.

The document is over 100 pages, so there are over 100 section breaks. Is there a way to delete them all? I tried copying a section break and pasting it into Find & Replace, but the function couldn't see it, said it didn't find any.

Some apps have ASCII codes that can be used to find formatting elements, but I can't find anything about such codes in Pages.
