As I read concert reports I sometimes notice that certain basic writing errors appear quite often. This time I am seeing quite a few papers with section titles left hanging at the bottom of the page. The following graphic may help.
When you end up with a section title or sub-title on the last line of the page you have a couple of options to correct this.
- Place a page break before the title so that it ends up at the top of the following page and with its associated text, or…
- Reformat your text so that at least a line or two of the text following the subtitle appears after it at the bottom of the page.
