    flush margins and most other styles have followed, so this may not
    work in many cases. You should definitely avoid hyphenation in titles.

    To force line breaks in a title, but not in the table of contents,
    use the optional argument for \section:
         \section[This is the Title]{This is\\ the Title}

    One benefit of this is that \\ is safe and no \protect is needed.

49) In LaTeX, how do I number equations by section?

    In a style file (or between \makeatletter ... \makeatother, see
    question 6), put:
         \renewcommand\theequation{\thesection.\arabic{equation}}
         \@addtoreset{equation}{section}

    If you have chapters with a preamble that comes before the first
    section, you should not put equations there, as you will get funny
    numbers like 3.0.1. There are also two style files available from
    any CTAN site called seceqn.sty and apeqnum.sty. The first numbers
    equations by section, and the second gives individual equation
    numbers to equations in the appendix.

50) What is the fontinst package?

    Fontinst is a package written and supported by Alan Jeffrey. It
    makes the inclusion of PostScript fonts in LaTeX very easy by
    providing a set TeX macros which allows users to install virtual
    fonts. It can convert fonts from Adobe Font Metric (afm) or TeX
    Property List (pl) format into Virtual Property List (vpl)
    format. These Virtual Fonts (vfs) can then be used by your
    favorite device driver, such as dvips. Fontinst is available from
    any CTAN archive (see question 22) in ./fonts/utilities/fontinst.
    
    The package is written in TeX, for maximum portability at the cost
    of speed. It supports the OT1 (Computer Modern) and T1 (Cork)
    encodings, and allows fonts to be generated in an arbitrary
    encoding, with arbitrary `fake' characters---for example the `ij'
    character can be faked if necessary by putting an `i' next to a
    `j'. In addition, it can be customized by the user to deal with
    arbitrary font encodings.
    
    The package allows kerning to be shared between characters, for
    example `ij' can be kerned on the left as if it were an `i' and on
    the right as if it were a `j'. This is useful, since many
    PostScript fonts only include kerning information for characters
    without diacriticals.  Fontinst allows more than one PostScript
    font to contribute to a TeX font, for example the `ffi' ligatures
    for a font can be taken from the Expert encoding, if you have it,
    and it automatically generates an fd file for use with LaTeX. You
    can generate math fonts with nextlarger, varchar, and arbitrary
    font dimensions. Caps and small caps fonts can be generated with
    letter spacing and kerning.
     
    You use fontinst by writing a short LaTeX source file describing
    which fonts you want to combine, which transformations are
    necessary and what fonts you want to have finally. There are many
    contributions that can serve as a base for you to get started with
    fontinst. Running LaTeX on this source file will then produce the
    desired font definition and property files.
