I'm writing a paper containing equations and figure in two columns using MS Word 2011.
I observed the pages with equation won't fill up the first column before jumping to the second, making the paper difficult to read as it keeps going back and forth between columns.
How can I fix this?
PS: The equations were written in tables for numbering and cross-referencing
I have tried to format the paragraphs but still won't work.
your suggestions will be appreciated.
Probably this might solve your problem:

Oluwakemi Eniolorunda Due to issues like this in Word, I often use Excel to create tables, text columns, etc, and then paste it into Word (maintaining source format). In many cases, I've found it easier to create and modify text requiring special formatting using Excel.
Hello Oluwakemi,
It could be something as simple as "widow/orphan" settings that are active in Word. Click on the "paragraph" option in the Home tool bar, then select the Line and Page breaks tab, and adjust accordingly.
Good luck with your work.
