### 21.3.8 Deciding how to treat forced returns

Except within preformatted text, by default Mif2Go converts a forced return (FrameMaker Shift+Enter, a typesetting “hard return”) to one of the following, depending on the output type:

HTML: | <br>
XHTML: | <br />
XML: | a space

For HTML and XHTML output only, to override the default for selected paragraph formats:

[HTMLParaStyles]

; NoBreak changes any Shift+Enter in the para to space instead of

; <br> for HTML and XHTML.

ParaFmt = NoBreak

The NoBreak property has no effect in <pre> where a forced return becomes a line break, nor in those XML formats where <br> is invalid, such as DITA and DocBook.
