    Line-breaking in in-line maths

    TeX, by default, allows you to split a mathematical expression at the end of the line; it allows breaks at relational operators (like -“=”, “<”, etc.) and at binary operators (like “+”, -“-”, etc.). In the case of large expressions, this can sometimes be +“=”, “<#60;”, etc.) and at binary operators (like “+”, +“-”, etc.). In the case of large expressions, this can sometimes be a life-saver.

    However, in the case of simple expressions like a=b+c, a break can be really disturbing to the reader, and one would like to avoid it. -

      Using “old-style” figures

      These numbers are also called medieval or lowercase figures and their use is mostly font-specific. Terminology is confusing since the lining figures (which are now the default) are a relatively recent development (19th century) and before they arrived, oldstyle figures were the norm, even when setting mathematics. (An example is Thomas -Harriot’s Artis Analyticae Praxis published in 1631). In a +Harriot’s Artis Analyticae Praxis published in 1631). In a typical old style 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 have descenders and 6 and 8 ascend above the x-height; sometimes 2 will also ascend (this last seems to be a variation associated with French typography).

The command isn’t sensitive to the font style of surrounding text: the glyphs are only available to match the normal medium weight Computer Modern Roman fonts.

      The textcomp package changes \oldstylenums to use the glyphs in the Text Companion fonts (LaTeX TS1 encoding) when in text mode, and also makes them available using the macros of the -form \text<number>oldstyle, e.g., \textzerooldstyle. +form \text<number>oldstyle, e.g., \textzerooldstyle.
