Determining line breaks
The appearance of type on the page depends on a complex interaction of processes called composition . Using the
word spacing, letter spacing, glyph spacing, and hyphenation options you’ve selected, Illustrator evaluates possible
line breaks and chooses the one that best supports the specified parameters.
Illustrator offers two composition methods: the Adobe Every-line Composer and the Adobe Single-line Composer.
Both methods evaluate possible breaks and choose the one that best supports the hyphenation and justification
options you’ve specified for a given paragraph. The composition method affects only the selected paragraph or
paragraphs, so you can easily set different composition methods for different paragraphs.
Every-line Composer
The Every-line Composer considers a network of break points for a range of lines and thus can optimize earlier lines
in the paragraph in order to eliminate especially unattractive breaks later on.
The Every-line Composer approaches composition by identifying possible break points, evaluating them, and
assigning a weighted penalty based on the following principles:
•
For left-, right-, or center-aligned text, lines that fall closer to the right side are favored and have a lower penalty.
•
For justified text, the highest importance is given to evenness of letter and word spacing.
•
Hyphenation is avoided when possible.
Single-line Composer
The Single-line composer offers a traditional approach to composing type one line at a time. This option is useful if
you want manual control over how lines break. The Single-line Composer uses the following principles when consid­
ering a breakpoint:
•
Longer lines are favored over shorter lines.
•
In justified text, compressed or expanded word spacing is preferable to hyphenation.
•
In nonjustified text, hyphenation is preferable to compressed or expanded letter spacing.
•
If spacing must be adjusted, compression is better than expansion.
To choose one of these methods, select it from the Paragraph palette menu. Illustrator applies the method to all
paragraphs if you first select the type object or to the current paragraph only if you first insert the cursor in that
paragraph.
