In one of the messages in the "Applying on-line" thread
someone(sorry, don't remember who) stated that hard returns in a
Word doc are a Bad Thing. Within a paragraph, they most
certainly are. But I find myself using them to place figures
because Word allows figures to run off the bottom of the page.
Adding lines to push them to the next page is an ugly solution
to the problem that is a pain in the neck to update as the
document evolves. Is there an, ahem, *professional* way to keep
figures from dripping off the bottoms of pages?
Thanks for your thoughts.
