Re: Markup wrap at the end of the line

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi edes and Urs,

I don't think wordwrap is what the OP wanted. Can't you just manually split the long line of text, as per MWE here?

I still think this is a bad engraving choice, especially if it is over a page break. Maybe a footnote would serve better? How long is the text we are talking about?

I won't argue with what people want, but when it is outside the normal paddock on the farm, you generally have to manually adjust this sort of thing.
