Default How do I stop Word from moving a paragraph to next page?

My document is limited to 10 pages. I need to have 1-inch margins top,
bottom & sides. I need to stop Word from starting a new paragraph on the
next page if only one line will fit at the bottom of the page.

Change the Paragraph formatting for the styles you're using. For example, if
the style in use is Body Text, then choose Format - Styles & Formatting. In
the list of styles, right-click on Body Text and choose Modify. In the
Modify dialog box, choose Format - Paragraph - Line and Page Breaks tab.
There, remove the check next to Widow/Orphan control. Click OK. In Modify
Style, if you want this to be a permanent solution for all documents based
on this template (usually Normal.dot), tick Add to Template, then click OK.
