Hi!

What kind of line breaking algorithm is implemented in WeasyPrint, please?

We’re a browser, we implement the ugly one. 😄

But happily for you, things will change, even in browsers: the new text-wrap-style provides new ways to break lines, including a pretty value that is not specified but is a great opportunity to implement something close to the Knuth-Plass algorithm.

Interested in turning this issue into a feature request like "Support text-wrap-style"? (Note that it may take a lot of work to implement.)

Yeah! Interested a lot -- because I am typesetting a book with WeasyPrint and the line-breaking algorithm is an important part. Unfortunately, I am afraid that this feature, due to its complexity, will not make it in time (the book needs to be published in 1-2 months).

Related to line breaking -- I just submitted #2267

Probably not. It may be part of a bigger change, like #1840.
