How does orphan and widow management differ between print and digital content?

Print designers often manually adjust text blocks, line breaks, and spacing to avoid widows and orphans. Once printed, the layout is fixed and can’t be altered. In digital design, text reflows based on screen size, orientation, and user interaction, making it harder to manage manually. Modern web browsers support CSS properties for widow and orphan control. Many Content management systems (CMS) provide tools for managing content layout and flow, helping to minimize widows and orphans without extensive manual intervention.
