latex2e: Line breaking

 
 9 Line breaking
 ***************
 
 The first thing LaTeX does when processing ordinary text is to translate
 your input file into a sequence of glyphs and spaces.  To produce a
 printed document, this sequence must be broken into lines (and these
 lines must be broken into pages).
 
    LaTeX usually does the line (and page) breaking in the text body for
 you but in some environments you manually force line breaks.
