Half words in word

I want Microsoft Word 2010 to force split words exactly where the line ends, even if it is «wrong and unreadable». Font is some monotype (Courier New).

The text is in Text field which has fixed width. I found some option in Text field Format — Wrap lines inside. But it only disables / enables whole wrapping.

The text will be printed over uniform spaced boxes, each for one letter (postal order).

Examples:

Current:

some text with          |
looooooooooong word     |

What i want:

some text with looooooo |
oooong word             |

I tried to google it for an hour, but everybody wants the exact opposite (hard spaces etc..)

I’m sure there’s a more elegant way to do this, but if you make all spaces in the line non-breaking spaces (cntrl-shift-spacebar), the line will only wrap when it gets to the end of your fixed width text field. Just checked. You can do a find/replace with a normal space in the find field, and a cntrl-shift-spacebar in the replace field. Seems to do the trick.

This is very long after your original post, but I was having the same problem. The tutorial here explains how to automatically add hyphens at line breaks: http://www.officetooltips.com/word/tips/using_automatic_hyphenation.html

Open Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click Hyphenation and choose Hyphenation Options

You will be presented with a dialog where you can set up automatic hyphenation for your document.

Three years on, but I have an answer.
Install Japanese language to your language settings, reboot Word 2010 and then go to paragraph options. On the Asian Typography tab check the second check-box, which says something like «Allow Latin text to wrap in the middle of a word» (I use Word 2010 in Japanese, so I’m not sure of the exact text in English).

There you go, text wrapping in the middle of words that you can toggle on and off for each paragraph.

I’ve run into the same problem. The only solution I’ve found so far is to insert a «text box» into the document and paste the text into it. Not sure if that feature was in Word 2010 as I’m using 2017.

I’m trying to split strings in half, and it should not split in the middle of a word.

So far I came up with the following which is 99% working :

$text = "The Quick : Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog";
$half = (int)ceil(count($words = str_word_count($text, 1)) / 2); 
$string1 = implode(' ', array_slice($words, 0, $half));
$string2 = implode(' ', array_slice($words, $half));

This does work, correctly splitting any string in half according to the number of words in the string. However, it is removing any symbols in the string, for example for the above example it would output :

The Quick Brown Fox Jumped
Over The Lazy Dog

I need to keep all the symbols like : and / in the string after being split. I don’t understand why the current code is removing the symbols… If you can provide an alternative method or fix this method to not remove symbols, it would be greatly appreciated :)

Upon looking at your example output, I noticed all our examples are off, we’re giving less to string1 if the middle of the string is inside a word rather then giving more.

For example the middle of The Quick : Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog is The Quick : Brown Fox Ju which is in the middle of a word, this first example gives string2 the split word; the bottom example gives string1 the split word.

Give less to string1 on split word

$text = "The Quick : Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog";

$middle = strrpos(substr($text, 0, floor(strlen($text) / 2)), ' ') + 1;

$string1 = substr($text, 0, $middle);  // "The Quick : Brown Fox "
$string2 = substr($text, $middle);  // "Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog"

Give more to string1 on split word

$text = "The Quick : Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog";

$splitstring1 = substr($text, 0, floor(strlen($text) / 2));
$splitstring2 = substr($text, floor(strlen($text) / 2));

if (substr($splitstring1, 0, -1) != ' ' AND substr($splitstring2, 0, 1) != ' ')
{
    $middle = strlen($splitstring1) + strpos($splitstring2, ' ') + 1;
}
else
{
    $middle = strrpos(substr($text, 0, floor(strlen($text) / 2)), ' ') + 1;    
}

$string1 = substr($text, 0, $middle);  // "The Quick : Brown Fox Jumped "
$string2 = substr($text, $middle);  // "Over The Lazy / Dog"

I know this is an old question, but I have the following piece of code that should do what is needed.

It by default it splits the string on the first occurrence of a space after the middle.
If there are no spaces after the middle, it looks for the last space before the middle.

function trim_text($input) {
    $middle = ceil(strlen($input) / 2);
    $middle_space = strpos($input, " ", $middle - 1);

    if ($middle_space === false) {
        //there is no space later in the string, so get the last sapce before the middle
        $first_half = substr($input, 0, $middle);
        $middle_space = strpos($first_half, " ");
    }

    if ($middle_space === false) {
        //the whole string is one long word, split the text exactly in the middle
        $first_half = substr($input, 0, $middle);
        $second_half = substr($input, $middle);
    }
    else {
        $first_half = substr($input, 0, $middle_space);
        $second_half = substr($input, $middle_space);
    }
        return array(trim($first_half), trim($second_half));
}

These are examples:

Example 1:

«WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW»

Is split as

«WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW»

«WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW»

Example 2:

«WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW»

Is split as

«WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW»

«WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW»

Example 3:

«WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW»

Is split as

«WWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWW»

«WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW»

Example 4:

«WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW»

Is split as

«WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW»

«WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW»

Hope this can help someone out there :)

As usual, regex spares the developer a lot of tedious string manipulation calls and unnecessary script bloat. I’ll even go out on a limb and say that the regex pattern might be easier to understand that the string function laden scripts.

Code: (Demo)

$text = "The Quick : Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog";
$halfWay = (int)(strlen($text) / 2);
var_export(
    preg_split(
        '~.{0,' . $halfWay . '}Ks~s',
        $text,
        2
    )
);

Output:

array (
  0 => 'The Quick : Brown Fox',
  1 => 'Jumped Over The Lazy / Dog',
)

Effectively, we calculate the center of the string by counting its characters, then dividing by two and removing any decimal places.

Then greedily match zero to $halfWay number of characters, then forget those characters with K, then split the string on the latest qualifying space. The 3rd parameter of preg_split() determines the maximum amount of elements which may be produced.

I was created a great solution, where we dont lost characters or Where the word is not cut wrongly.

function split_title_middle ( $title ) {
    $title = strip_tags( $title );
    $middle_length = floor( strlen( $title ) / 2 );
    $new_title = explode( '<br />', wordwrap( $title, $middle_length, '<br />') );
    if (isset( $new_title[2] ) ) {
        $new_title[1] .= ' ' . $new_title[2];
        unset( $new_title[2] );
    }

    return $new_title;
 }

// how to use
$title = split_title_middle( $title );
echo $title[0] . '<strong>' . $title[1] . '</strong>';

I tried using a couple of these answers but didn’t get the best results so I thought I would share the solution. I wanted to split my titles in half and display one half white and one half green.

I ended up combining word count, the length of the text, the half way point and a third of the string. This allowed me to make sure the white section is going to be somewhere between the third way/half way mark.

I hope it helps someone. Be aware in my code -,& etc would be considered a word — it didn’t cause me issues in my testing but I will update this if I find its not working as I hope.

public function splitTitle($text){

    $words = explode(" ",$text);
    $strlen = strlen($text);
    $halfwaymark = ceil($strlen/2);
    $thirdwaymark = ceil($strlen/3);

    $wordcount = sizeof($words);
    $halfwords = ceil($wordcount/2);
    $thirdwords = ceil($wordcount/3);

    $string1 ='';
    $wordstep = 0;
    $wordlength = 0;


    while(($wordlength < $wordcount && $wordstep < $halfwords) || $wordlength < $thirdwaymark){
        $string1 .= $words[$wordstep].' ';
        $wordlength = strlen($string1);
        $wordstep++;
    }

    $string2 ='';
    $skipspace = 0;
    while(($wordstep < $wordcount)){
        if($skipspace==0) {
            $string2 .= $words[$wordstep];
        } else {
            $string2 .= ' '.$words[$wordstep];
        }
        $skipspace=1;
        $wordstep++;
    }

    echo $string1.' <span class="highlight">'.$string2.'</span>';

}

Just change the line:

$half = (int)ceil(count($words = (count(explode(" ",$text))) / 2);

str_word_count() may not count : or / as word.

By default, Word documents have only one column of text. There are several ways you can split a page in Word document to get two columns (i.e. Spit into Half). However, in this tutorial, I’ll walk you through the two most easy ways you can use to effortlessly split your pages in Word. One involved using columns and the other involved using tables.

By splitting a page in Word, you can divide the text so that it flows in separate columns across the page.

See screenshot:

split page in Word - using two columns

Without further ado, below are the options you can use to split a page or pages in MS Word.

Using Two Columns to Vertically split a page (in half) in Word

To split pages in Word with the help of columns:

  • Select the text on the page you want to split into two halves.
  • Don’t select any text if you want to split all pages in your Word document.
  • Click on the Layout tab.
  • In the Page Setup group, click on the Columns button. A shortcut menu appears with five column options.
  • To split your page or pages equally, choose the Two-column option.
  • Use the Three column option to split your page or pages into three parts.
Click on the Two columns optoin
  • However, if you want to split your page into more than three columns, click on More Columns.
split pages in Word using two or three columns
  • The column dialog box will appear. Make the necessary settings. In the Number of Columns box, type the number of columns you wish to split your pages in to. Click the Line between check-box if you want to split your pages with a line dividing the columns.
how to split page in Word into two columns
  • Click OK.

In Word, section break affects columns. Thus, if your document has only one section, then the columns apply to all the pages. However, if your document contains more than one sections, the splitting will apply to only the pages on the current section

This is how you may split a page in Word using columns.

Splitting pages using tables

This option involves using grid tables as a layout to split your page the way you want. With the tables option, you can split your page into halves or even four grid parts if you want to display four separate images, charts or even blog of text.

Below is how it works:

  • To split a page into two equal parts:
  • Use the Insert table command to insert a table with two columns and one row.
  • Using the table resizer at the bottom right corner of the table, click and drag to resize the table to cover the part of the page you want to split.
split page in wordd into two columns
  • Fill in your content on both sides of the table.
  • Remove the borders or hide the table lines. To hide the line borders of a table, first, select the entire table and go to the Table Tools Design tab, click on Borders, the list of borders appears, choose No Border. This will remove all the table borders leaving you with two columns of text.
Hide borders of the table

These are the two simple ways to split a page in Word.
