Summary : Automatically remove widows and orphans from any document
URL : http://tug.org/texlive/
License : MPL-2.0
Description : Unmodified TeX has very few ways of preventing widows and
: orphans. In documents with figures, section headings, and
: equations, TeX can stretch the vertical glue between items in
: order to prevent widows and orphans, but many documents have no
: figures or headings. TeX can also shorten the page by 1 line,
: but this will give each page a different length which can make
: a document look uneven. The typical solution is to
: strategically insert \looseness=1, but this requires manual
: editing every time that the document is edited.
: Lua-widow-control is essentially an automation of the
: \looseness method: it uses Lua callbacks to find "stretchy"
: paragraphs, then it lengthens them to remove widows and
: orphans. Lua-widow-control is compatible with all LuaTeX and
: LuaMetaTeX-based formats. All that is required is to load the
: package at the start of your document. To load: Plain LuaTeX:
: \input lua-widow-control LuaLaTeX:
: \usepackage{lua-widow-control} ConTeXt:
: \usemodule[lua-widow-control] OpTeX: \load[lua-widow-control]
