1.
Open the style sheet for the Print context: on the Resources pane, expand the Styles
folder and double-click context_print_styles.css.
2. Add a CSS rule, like the following:
p {widows: 4; orphans: 3 }
Per paragraph
To change the widow or orphan setting for one paragraph only:
1.
Select the paragraph, using the breadcrumbs or the Outline pane (next to the Resources
pane).
2.
Select Format > Paragraph, on the menu.
3.
After Widows and Orphans, type the number of lines to be considered a widow or orphan
(this amounts to the minimum number of lines that may be separated from a paragraph,
minus one).
In tables
The CSS properties widows and orphans can be used in tables. They are not available in the
Table Formatting dialog, however, so they must be added manually, either directly in the style
attribute of the <table> element (on the Source tab in the Workspace) or in a style sheet rule, as
follows:
1.
On the menu, select Edit > Stylesheets.
2.
Select the Print context.
3.
Click New (or, when there are already CSS rules for tables, click the selector table and
click Edit).
4.
Click the Advanced button.
5. Add a rule for widows and/or orphans, typing the name of the CSS property in the left
column and the value in the right column.
6. Close the dialogs.
Page breaks
A page break occurs automatically when the contents of a section don't fit on one page.
