What can cause the RTF keep tag not working correctly?

[IDEAL Software Support]

I wrap the following text within the keep tag. When there are more
than one page, a port of text within keep move to the next page, the
rest of text will remain in the first page. Did anyone know why?

Thank for your help.

Here is the text.

\par \par\widctlpar\keep\keepn STATE OF Maryland\line COUNTY OF
Frederick\line \line On October 21st, 2003, before me,a Notary Public
in and for Frederick County, in the State of Maryland, personally

to do, executed the foregoing instrument for the purposes therein
contained, by signing the name of the corporation by himself/herself
as the officer designated therein.

I tried exactly your demo text and inserted it into an A4 document with the following coordinates:

WriteRTF(100, 2650, -1000, VFREE, "<your demo text>")

and it works correctly and as expected, i.e. the text as a whole is broken to the next page, since

\widctlpar\keep\keepn

are RTF instructions to keep all the following paragraphs together.

If on your machine this text is split over two pages, please mail the page format of the document (A4, US-Letter, ...), the margin settings and the exact command (including all the coordinates) with which you insert the text into the document.

BTW: are you using the latest release of VPE? Maybe this is a bug of an older version. If you are using VPE v3.20 the upgrade to the current v3.50 is free. Simply download the v3.50 trial version and enter your v3.20 license key to unlock it.
