Hi there, I have been using ConTeXt for some months and one of the things I cannot control is orphan or widow lines appearing in my documents. Isn't there a general method to avoid them? (This should set ragged bottoms, but I'd rather have ragged bottoms than orphan or widow lines.) Thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Hi, you can try (and experiment with) \clubpenalty=10000 \widowpenalty=10000 after \starttext. Hope that helps, Stefan On 07.12.2011 22:32, Pablo Rodríguez wrote:

Thanks, Stefan. I didn't know that this only worked in the document itself (and not in the preamble). Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
