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." />

(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?

Regards,

Matthias
