Dear All, in my auto-generated two column index (registry) there are several cases of widows - it is the last item of the given letter which overflows to next column/page: --------------- (start page) ------- Usti 29 (!!! - I would expect to place here also one or better two previous entries) V Vamberk 18 ... ... There are also few cases of orphans, but this is not so strange: ... ... Josef 29 K (!!! - both these lines could be moved to the next column/page) Karel 69 ---------------- (end page) --------- In my setup I have defined: \startsetups[grid][mypenalties] \setdefaultpenalties \setpenalties\widowpenalties{2}{10000} % change to {3}{10000} doesn't help \setpenalties\clubpenalties {2}{10000} \stopsetups \setuplayout[grid=yes, setups=mypenalties] It is hard to provide MWE. Moreover, the content is for private use only. Is there any remedy for this? Thanks, Jan
