Using Word 2003, whenever I try to use frames for images in my document,
orphan/widow control no longer works. That is, if I have a paragraph that
starts near a figure at the bottom of the page or ends near a figure at the
top of a page, Word will gladly allow a widow or orphan line, even though
that option is checked. Additionally, frames seems to make Word ignore other
paragraph flow operators like "Keep with next."
Are there any work-arounds? For now I've just been playing with the length
of paragraphs manually by adjusting spacing between sections etc. to prevent
single lines. But I'd like a long-term automatic solution.
Please don't suggest using in-line images. I need images at the top or
bottom of a page regardless of whether I'm between paragraphs, and I'm not
interested in faking it by manually splitting paragraphs.
Thanks
