[Docutils-users] How to keep paragraphs or table rows together

[R. D. <rdi...@ya...>]

Hi there:

I am evaluating reStructuredText for my documentation needs.

The one thing that bothers me most often with Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer is that paragraphs or tables are not kept together when generating a PDF or printing. Not everyone can always read the docs on a screen. It looks unprofessional when a page break comes at the wrong time.

I haven't learnt much about reStructuredText yet, but I could not (quickly) find a way to mark paragraphs or tables to be kept together on a page.

For more detailed information about why I need an easy, consistent way for this kind of thing, check out the following discussion about AsciiDoc, which, in my opinion, does not fit the bill in this respect:
