Preventing unwanted word breaks


    You can prevent words from breaking at the end of lines--for example, proper names or words whose break might have a misleading appearance. You also can keep multiple words from breaking--for example, clusters of initials and a last name.

To prevent characters from breaking:

  1. Select the characters you want to prevent from breaking.
  2. Choose No Break from the Character palette menu.
  3. Note: If many contiguous characters use the No Break option, the type may be forced to wrap in the middle of a word.
