Publisher: How to turn ". . ." into a "word" so that it won't split to the next line

[ShadowOfArnor]

I use three periods with spaces between them (. . .) for ellipses. I need to make sure that Publisher doesn't split it when wrapping to the next line, like leaving the first period at the end of the line and dropping the other two to the next line. I seem to remember stumbling on a way to do this, but I can't find it now. 

Can someone tell me the best way to make this work? 

Thanks

hi, you could use "alt-." ("." that is on top of the space bar) to get "…" as one character.

Yes, typographically that is usually the right approach. But with some fonts, the distances between the dots are simply too small.

I’d set this by changing the tracking (or kerning) and set it as a style rather than using spaces.  That is assuming you don’t want to use Alt + 0 1 3 3

Character panel > No Break
Save as character style.

Very elegant solution. I understood "No Break" right away, I would not have suspected it under "Ohne Wechsel".

In der Tat eine seltsame Übersetzung. Müsste eigentlich "Kein Umbruch" heissen.

This is the thing I remembered! Thank you!
