Keep lines together

Mar 31 / Michelle Unger
Let’s learn how to use this handy feature:

Step 1) Select the Paragraph: Click anywhere within the paragraph you want to keep together.

Step 2) Open Paragraph Formatting:

Method 1 (Right-Click): Right-click within the paragraph and select "Paragraph".

Method 2 (Home Tab): Go to the "Home" tab, then click the "Paragraph" group's dialog box launcher (the small arrow in the bottom right corner).

Step 3) Access Line and Page Breaks: In the Paragraph dialog box, select the "Line and Page Breaks" tab.

Step 4) Enable "Keep lines together": Check the box labeled "Keep lines together"

Step 5) Click OK: Click "OK" to apply the formatting.

When you are reading a document, it can be jarring to get to the bottom of a page and find a paragraph that begins at the bottom, and continues at the top of the next one. Like Image 1 show below.
