Line breaking and page breaking

نویسنده

  • Jonathan Fine
چکیده

In their seminal paper of 1981, Knuth and Plass described how to apply the method of discrete dynamic programming to the problem of breaking a paragraph into lines. This paper outlines how the same method can be applied to the problem of page make up, or in other words breaking paragraphs into pages. One of the key ideas is that there must be interaction between the line breaking and page breaking routines. It is shown that TEX can, with one important limitation, fully support such interaction. This article also shows how TEX can, by using a custom paragraph shape and a special horizontal list, suppress hyphenation of the last word on a page.
