I never did figure out how to not get overfull hbox errors, does anyone know?
Reword your text to fit.
Aaah, LaTeX, where you don’t have to care about the formatting, but do have to care about which words to use so you don’t have to care about the formatting.
I also hate that warning, but it’s basically ”Can’t fit your text, with the font and properties you specified, into the box you specified without making it look like ass”
Easiest way to preserve formatting is to reword the text. Then again, would be nice if it didn’t happen all the time in my normal paragraphs as soon as I use a word with more than 10 characters…
The microtype package helps a bit by squeezing letters.
It's because LaTeX has abstracted away all the lovely plain TeX macros and people treat it as a way to not have to think about typography. This is a good explanation: https://tug.org/TUGboat/tb14-2/tb39taylor-para.pdf
