Yes, if full justification is on (adjustment mode "n" in roff parlance), which it is by default. If you know you want the horizontal line on a separate line from the text, placing an explicit break between the two will stop roff from adjusting that line, as the text is then effectively the last line in a paragraph. $ echo -e ".pl 1\nShall I compare thee to a summer's day?\n.br\n\l'16.5c'" | groff -Tascii Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? _________________________________________________________________
