Just format the text in your controls as you would in a text document. e.g.
<Control Id="TextTop" Type="Text" X="20" Y="55" Width="330" Height="60" NoPrefix="yes" Text="Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. A new line with some more text. Yet another new line with yet more text. A 3rd new line with even more text." /> http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372076%28VS.85%29.aspx (it says to use multiple one-line text controls located below each other but the above works fine for me).

Subject: [WiX-users] newline in Text fields? Hello, Is it possible to include a newline character (\n) in a formatted text string? I want to output some text containing line breaks in a text control. I entered the text, using \n for the newlines. The resulting dialog does contain the line breaks, but also some additional rectangles. What has gone wrong here?
