 const AMaxWidth: Integer; ALines: TStrings)

Arguments

`AFont`	Provides the font which will be used for word-wrapping the text.
`AText`	String which will be wrapped to multiple line when its pixel width is longer than `AMaxWidth`.
`AMaxWidth`	Integer argument which defines the maximum width that a line is allowed to have after word-wrapping. The value is specified in pixels.
`ALines`	This parameter of type `TStrings` collects the individual lines obtained by word-wrapping the input string.
