Dear Sunter - It's not orphaning I'm worried about so much as the next line of text being pushed over the page break. But this info on always keeping the caption with the image is very useful. Thanks.

In the style specification, set Format/Paragraph/Line and page breaks to 'Keep with next'. Provided your caption is under your image, the image and the caption will always be on the same page. Of course, if your caption is above your image, apply 'keep with next' to the Caption style instead.

Strict pagination on the current job demands mean only a v flexible method will work: so that (even) single lines don't get shuffled over to the next page. It takes more time to set up text boxes, but the absence of any 'template' in terms of position means I get exactly what I need on each page.

Then they look uniform with one click. ________________________________ From: austechwriter-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:austechwriter-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthew da Silva Sent: Monday, 8 September 2008 7:12 AM To: austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: atw: captioning MS-Word 2007 captioning is not very flexible and I want just to use a series of text boxes containing plain text centred instead. Anyone else come across this shortcoming of MS-Word 2007? Did you arrive at a different solution? Information welcome. Matt Before printing, please consider the environment.
