Manually entering a line break where needed is working for me. Thanks.
However, the Ctrl-Return frame break pushes the content into the next frame,
which for me is the next page, since I'm using a single two-column frame for
each page. But, one way or another, either a column break or even a simple
line break seems to do the job, and isn't much manual work.
Now, getting back to my original attempt at using the "Keep with next
paragraph" setting in the paragraph style editor, do you know why that's not
working automatically? Am I misunderstanding what this setting is supposed to
do?
