It happens to my scores that when using \markuplines for long texts
(more
than a page), Lilypond leaves a first or a last line orphaned (single,
alone) on a page. This is normally unwanted in printed literature.
Is there
a way how to instruct Lilypond not to leave orphaned or widowed
single lines
on any page?
You may consider using the ly:minimal-breaking page breaking algorithm
for
text sections. The default algorithm, ly:optimal-breaking, is abviously
dedicated to scores, so it can lead to suboptimal results when dealing
with
text. Conversely, ly:minimal-breaking gives better results with text: it
stacks as many lines as possible on a page before brekaing to the next
one.
