It’s a novel of ~650 pages with a big range of paragraph lengths
(some dialogues with short lines as well as paragraphs that span
pages). “Of course” you often get a 3-line paragraph over a page
break – it’s hard to avoid widows and orphans.
depends .. three liners can be made to work in fact one should then
use \widowpenalties and \clubpenalties with a high value for the first
two entries (and maybe disable them to overlap)
I have
\setpenalties\widowpenalties{2}{8000}
\setpenalties\clubpenalties{2}{10000}
Does this make sense? While I saw in your demonstrations that it’s
possible to set different penalties per line, I never tried.
That's kind of high: a four line paragraph now gets
line
10000
line
18000
line
8000
line
Otherwise, I found out the easiest solution is a \vbox, VZ does the
rest. Should have thought of that earlier, would have saved me a few hours.
often pretty bad spacing (you can also start a paragraph with
\linepanelty10000)
