You cannot remove page and paragraph formatting, since every page and 
every paragraph has to have some format or other. But you can reset 
these to some other value or default.

The only page formatting in a Writer document is page style 
formatting, so you need just to modify the page style(s) in your 
document or to apply a suitable page style - perhaps Default - to all 
your material. Open the Styles and Formatting window, put the cursor 
in turn into each range of pages with a particular style, and 
double-click the Default style on the Page Styles panel.

Your paragraph formatting may be paragraph formatting or paragraph 
style formatting, but resetting paragraph style formatting seems to 
trump paragraph formatting, so is all you need to attend to. Open the 
Styles and Formatting window, select all the material, and 
double-click the Default style on the Paragraph Styles panel.

I trust this helps.
