Affinity Publisher prevent orphaned/widowed not working

[MEMO]

MOD EDIT - The following was 'split' from a post in Tutorials, as the additional information provided there belongs more suitably in a 'Questions' thread.

I do hope AfPub will come up with book templates soon.

Not sure if all dictionaries are included yet. I still miss the Danish ones. I did manage to put a Danish dictionary though. 

Not sure why Prevent orphaned first lines and Prevent widowed last lines doesn't work well when I try to use it. I end up not using them.

Du musst kein dänisches Wörterbuch erstellen.

Hier findest du eine aktuelle Version

https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/stavekontrolden-danish-dictionary

• Lade die Datei aktuellste herunter
• Ändere die Endung .oxt in .zip
• Entpacke das Verzeichnis
• Kopiere die Dateien "da_dk.aff" ,"da_dK.dic"  und "hyp_da_dk" in ein Verzeichnis mit dem Namen "da_dk" und verschiebe es in das Verzeichnis "Dictionairies"
• Noch den Apub neu starten

If you want help with that, please prepare a sample .afpub document that illustrates your problem, and provide it and a more detailed description to us. "Doesn't work well" is too vague to work with.

I stopped using Prevent orphaned first lines and Prevent widowed last lines and try to fix it other way. Maybe I don't do it right. 

Can you tell my why this mistake appears when I export my document as pdf file. Look at the attachment. What shall I do to avoid this exporting to pdf before sending it to print.

Das Quadrat deutet darauf hin, dass das Zeichen fehlt.

• Sind alle Schriften vorhanden?
• Wie sind die Exporteinstellungen? Sind die Schriften eingebettet?

Kannst du ein apub-Beispiel hochladen und die entsprechenden Exporteinstellungen?

I use Palatino so it shouldn't be a problem ... I does it some times I think. I will do it later exporting to Pdf 

Thanks :-) 

Here is export setting attachments. Seems like it sometimes makes the mistakes and sometimes it doesn't. Last time I exported it didn't do it. Wonder why?
