You can't! TeX cannot justify a line where (say)
[....................................]ssr:ServiceSessionReq-
is the ideal length and you want it to move all of
ssr:serviceSessionReq + est
to the next line. The previous line would simply be too short
for LaTeX (or any half-decent typesetting system) to justify,
although undoubtedly Word would think it possible ! I would
very strongly suggest that you set the document \raggedright,
in which case all of your problems will (hopefully) disappear !
