In Footnote under Note Styles in the Style Sheet view, there is an option "Multi-page Threshold". Try to set it 0 pt and 0 line. It defines "the minimum number of points and/or lines that the notes must contain before they can split between pages". With such a setting, NWP still does not split notes of 2 lines, but this may improve the situation. 

Does this occur after a long footnote? If so and if possible, dividing it into two or more footnotes may help. That's just a workaround, though.

If nothing solves the problem and if you need a print out or a pdf not affected by the bug, try OpenOffice. To use it with Arabic, you have to check "Enabled for complex text layout (CTL)" in Preferences => Language Settings => Language and choose one of Arabic languages as CTL.

>>> Hi,
>>> I have a file that used to be 40 pages (now 78 pages). It is in Arabic with various lengths of footnotes. Blank pages are generated separating the text. One example is the text on page 17 is continued on page 50 with blank pages in between. If I apply delete then the last 2 words connect. If I apply a space between the 2 words, then all these blank pages come back!! This is happening in more than one place in the file. I suspect that it has to do with the footnotes, some of which are about one page long.
