Working With Styles
a
Following Paragraph Style: If you want a particular paragraph style to always
follow the current style when you press the Return key, choose the style from the
pop-up menu. For example, you might create a photo caption style that should
always be followed by a byline style.

labeled “Prevent widow & orphan lines” to prevent leaving individual lines on the
following or previous pages.
