* Forcing the next source onto next page?

[wulliam]

I'm hoping there's an easy fix for this one, but can't find it...

I'm adding media to sources, and generating a descendant report. When the image is too large to fit onto a page (because there's already content at the top of the page) the image drops onto the next page - fair enough. But is it possible to force the Title onto the next page, rather than having it as a widow (I think that's the correct term?) at the bottom of the page?

Many thanks.

This question crops up regularly and I'm surprised there is not a Wish List entry for it.

I am not aware of any FH feature to ensure text associated with a Media image is kept on the same page as the image.
The caption below the image stays with it but not the Source Citation details in your case.

You could try reporting the problem to CP.

The only other option is to Save Report As > RTF file and edit the page breaks in a word-processor.

Thanks Mike - will report to CP.

The disadvantage of going via RTF is that it introduces a lot of other untidy formatting that may not have been in the original version. However, if you are familiar with Word macros, it is possible to construct a formatting macro that works in conjunction with your standard report setting to give a really good finished appearance. It takes out 99% of the untidy page breaks and element alignment automatically, so I then save to PDF from Word for my final archive copy.

It's more work than a direct PDF save from FH, but IMO a far nicer end product.

Thanks Mark - a nice idea, but I'm a little technologically challenged that way!
