   is there a limitation of article description by characters on the front page ??

   can limit how many articles on the front by adding pagination??

   Under "settings" -> "reading" you can choose how many articles appear on the index (and in archive pages, etc.).

   If you want to limit the number of characters/words for each article on the index, you can use the more tag or an excerpt-plugin.

   Pagination in an article? What do you mean?

   say i am writing a long essay, and instead of making the user scroll forever, can i add a page break and WP adds a the pagination links to next page?

   Right... never heard about a plugin that does that, but that doesn't mean there can't exist one. Just Google a little.

   There ARE people who make some kind of book using WP, but I think every chapter is a new post.

   .COM is a free blog for anyone, just as blogger or something. .ORG is for people with self-hosted blogs.
   But did you follow my link? The top two results contain tips and tricks for what you are looking for. Not plugins, it requires a little coding, but with things that are part of WP.

   <!--nextpage-->
   This will create the pagination in the post.

    As many pages as many times you insert it in the text. Warning: it does not work if you are using the wysiwyg gizmo.

    Also, your template files (index, single, page etc.) need to have this code/template tag to make it work:
    Template_Tags/wp_link_pages

    Try hitting "Alt-Shift-P" when in the "wysiwyg gizmo". ;-)

    There's a number of keyboard shortcuts in that editor. To see them, hit the rightmost button on the top row to turn on the second row, and then hit the right most button there to pop up the help screen. On there, one of the tabs shows all the shortcuts.
