Create Line Breaks

To apply paragraph formatting to a group of lines that belong together, use a line break instead of a paragraph break if you want to begin a new line without beginning a new paragraph. Click where you want to break a line and press Shift+Enter. This is handy if you want a series of short lines to retain the formatting of a single paragraph, such as with an address or lines of poetry.
