Problem

Symptoms: What does the Widow/Orphan feature consider as the end of a paragraph? The customer thinks Widow/Orphan should consider a double hard return [HRt][HRt] as the end of a paragraph, instead of a single [HRt]. Solutions: WordPerfect considers a single [HRt] the end of a paragraph. When the program encounters a single [HRt] while Widow/Orphan is turned on, the program looks to see if there is a soft page [SPg] code within the paragraph. If the [SPg] causes a widow (single line of text of the paragraph on the top of a page) or an orphan (single line of text of the paragraph on the bottom of a page), then the program will force the line above the widow to the next page or force the Orphan to the next page. One of the reasons the program does not search for a double [HRt] code is because there are some instances where users do not use double [HRt]'s between paragraphs.
