This works great. Does anyone have a script or methodology that would enable this to be added for a lot of books, either inside Calibre or outside of it? Would love to find a way to batch this without having to go through hundreds or thousands of titles...

Without this setting, the Adobe ARM renderer will use a default of 2 (unless you get a version that been set for 3) for both those values. Without these settings, a paragraph that would leave 1 or 2 lines at the bottom of a page (orphans) would be moved to the next page leaving blank lines and a paragraph that would leave 1 or 2 lines at the start of the next page (widows) will have enough lines moved to the next page to leave 3 or more at the top of the page, again leaving blank lines at the bottom of the previous page.
