I already use this method (for almost any kind of heading) - and I have widow/Orphan control set to a more than just a couple of lines - but it doesn't cover all situations.

This is no more effort than inserting a dummy paragraph to force the page break, and has the benefit of lower maintenance -- If the upstream formatting changes, you stand a much better chance of the break falling in a logical/aesthetic fashion than if you force a break (either with a P-tag exception or by inserting a dummy paragraph). Once either paragraph crosses the page boundary, the break is redrawn in a way that looks good. I believe it is also possible to program this behavior into your body text definition's Widow/Orphan Lines control, but I have not investigated this. --William Alison Craig wrote: > Is there a way to create a style that accepts all existing formatting and > simply applies (i.e., forces) a page break?
