will flow to the top of the next column or page. Alternatively, you can specify the number
of lines that must be left at the bottom of a column or box, and at the top of the following
column or box, when a paragraph is broken. Using the Keep with Next ¶ feature, you can
keep a paragraph together with the paragraph that follows it. This lets you keep a subhead
together with the paragraph that follows it, or keep other lines of text that logically go
together from being separated.
It is common to specify Keep with Next ¶ for headline and subhead style sheets and
specify Keep Lines Together (usually with Start and End parameters) for body text style
sheets.
To turn the Keep Lines Together and Keep with Next ¶ features on or off for selected
paragraphs, choose Style > Formats to display the Formats tab of the Paragraph Attributes
dialog box, then check or uncheck Keep Lines Together and Keep with Next ¶.
Working with non-breaking character sets
Non-breaking characters are characters that cannot be separated from each other at line
breaks. The Non-Breaking Character Set dialog box (Edit > NonBreaking Character Sets)
includes default non-breaking character sets for Japanese Strong, Japanese Weak, Korean
Standard, Simplified Chinese Standard and Traditional Chinese Standard.
To create custom non-breaking character sets:
1
Choose Edit > Non-Breaking Character Sets. The Non-Breaking Character Sets dialog
box displays.
2
Click New.
3
Enter a name in the Name field.
4
Enter characters in the Enter characters that cannot begin a line field, the Enter
characters that cannot end a line field, and the Enter non-separable characters field.
5
Click OK.
6
Click Save.
To apply a non-breaking character set to a paragraph, choose one from the Non-Breaking
Char Set drop-down menu in the Edit Hyphenation & Justification dialog box (Edit >
H&Js > Edit).
Controlling kerning
Kerning is the adjustment of space between character pairs. Because of their shapes, certain
character pairs look better when kerned. You can use automatic kerning, and you can also
use manual kerning controls to specify additional kerning between characters.
Kerning values are expressed as 1/200 of an em space. A positive kerning value increases
the amount of space between characters; a negative value decreases it.
