I agree too. It is defined in AlMawrid as a word or more that are left alone at the beginning or end of a page.
regards, ----- Original Message ---- From: محمد سعد <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: توثيق عربآيز <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 6, 2007 3:09:47 PM Subject: (no subject) Widows and Orphans Widows and orphans are historical typography terms, which have been in use for many years. A widow refers to a short line at the end of a paragraph, which when printed, appears alone at the top of the next page. An orphan is, in contrast, the first line of a paragraph printed alone at the bottom of the previous page. In a OpenOffice.org text document you can automatically prevent such occurrences in the desired Paragraph Style. When doing so, you can determine the minimum amount of lines to be kept together on a page سلام يمكن ترجمتها : الأرملة و اليتيم و جمعها أرامل و يتامى. و بما أن ليس هناك إستعمال عربي و تعريف لهذ المصطلحات يمكن تعريفها في OpenOffice كمصطلح خاص به أي عند ترجمة صفحات المساعدة لهذا التطبيق. محمد سعد _______________________________________________ Doc mailing list [email protected] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/doc __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
