Re: Further input
If your outline is constructed of heading styles, the problem is caused by
the fact that Headings 1-4 are formatted as "Keep with next" (Format |
Paragraph | Line and Page breaks), which causes them to chase one another
until they fill a page and Word is forced to insert a break. To avoid this
problem, remove the KWN formatting from at least Headings 3 and 4.

Brilliant!
I don't completely understand that bit of subtlety, but it worked.
Thanks!
