Controlling paragraph breaks
You can eliminate orphans and widows, words or single lines of text that become separated from the other lines in a
paragraph. Orphans fall at the bottom of a column or page, and widows fall at the top of a column or page.
In addition, you can specify how many lines of the following paragraph remain with the current paragraph as it
moves between frames—a convenient way to ensure that headings don’t become isolated from the body text they
introduce. InCopy can highlight the paragraphs that sometimes break in violation of your settings.
When you create paragraph styles for headings, use the Keep Options panel to make sure that your headings remain
with the paragraph that follows them.
To control paragraph breaks
1 Using the Type tool , select the paragraphs you want to affect.
2 Choose Keep Options in the Paragraph palette menu. (You can also change keep options when creating or editing
a paragraph style.)
3 Select any of these options and then click OK:
• For Keep With Next _ Lines, specify the number of lines (up to five) of the subsequent paragraph that the last line
of the current paragraph stays with. This option is especially useful for making sure that a heading stays with the
next few lines of the paragraph that follows it.
• Select the Keep Lines Together option and select All Lines in Paragraph to prevent the paragraph from breaking.
• Select the Keep Lines Together option, select At Start/End of Paragraph, and specify the number of lines that must
appear at the beginning or ending of the paragraph to prevent orphans and widows.
• For Start Paragraph, choose an option to force InCopy to push the paragraph to the next column, frame, or page.
To set the paragraph start position, select an option from the Start Paragraph menu. If Anywhere is selected, the
start position is determined by the Keep Line Settings option. For other options, they will be forced to start from
these positions. (See
“To add column, frame, and page breaks” on page 157.)
To highlight paragraphs that violate Keep Options
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > Composition (Windows) or InCopy > Preferences > Composition (Mac OS).
2 Select Keep Violations, and click OK.
