Hello Robert and Steve, please have a look at Selwyn Hollis': http://www.appliedsymbols.com/mmacalc/index.html#calc At the bottom of the page you will find the palette "Glue" designed to facilitate page breaks &c.

In my limited experience in using Mathematica's typesetting and other user-connected features, there are a large number of bugs, weird behaviors and unexplained occurrences. I would not use it for preparing final ouitput. Others will disagree with me, but I regard Mathematica as pretty user-hostile. Documentation, while extensive, is inadequate in my view. I usually can't find what I want. With sufficient motivation, I could describe some of the bugs I mentioned, but I'm too busy right now. Steve Gray
