The "re-write the sentence" solution occurred to me, but I just couldn't see a way. Thanks for the other suggestions. Inserting a hyphen woulda been nice. Unfortunately the word in question is the possessive of a short one-syllabal-ish name, and it was the "'s" that was outside the margin. I think I like the font I ended up with, but I'll give the other options you suggest just for education-about-latex purposes.
