You should try to avoid doing this wherever possible as it makes reading the text much more difficult.
However, if you must, you should try to split in a way that keeps meaning intact. For example, with compound words, such as "keyboard" you should split like so:
key-
board.

What is a non-breaking hyphen in MS 2010?
A non-breaking hyphen will keep the words together on the same line, and will not split them if one word doesn't have room to fit on the end of a line, but another does. The whole combination will be brought onto a new line. This ensures they will never be split. For some combinations of words that have hyphens, it is proper to always keep them on one line.
