* ''Literature/HarryPotter'': There is a page of stars in between every chapter, which means no matter what happens with fonts or translation you will always have to turn a page to get to the next chapter. This is sometimes used for dramatic pauses, such as in the first book when revealing who is in the room with the stone: [[spoiler:It wasn't Snape. It wasn't even Voldemort. (chapter break) It was Quirrell.]].

* Creator/JoseMariaEguren: The first edition of ''Simbólicas'' is laid out in a way that the larger {{poe|try}}ms are split precisely where the author wants them to be. The first page of "Las bodas vienesas" (translation: "The Viennese Weddings") ends without revealing who's getting married in such a pompous way in a trifle store of all places.
