Package: microtype
All microtyping is disabled which may lead to different line breaking
If the draft option is passed to the package, all micro-typographic extensions will be disabled, which may lead to different line, and hence page, breaks. The draft and final options may also be inherited from the class options; of course, you can override them in the package options. E. g., if you are using the class option draft to show any overfull boxes, you should load
microtype
with the final option.
