You can use \n (newline) symbols or you can use the markup syntax.

The sample:

<title>
    <band height="167" splitType="Stretch">
        <textField isStretchWithOverflow="true">
            <reportElement x="414" y="38" width="100" height="20"/>
            <textElement markup="styled"/>
            <textFieldExpression><![CDATA["A report is a textual work <br/>(usually of writing, speech, television, or film) <br/>made with the specific intention of <br/> relaying information"]]></textFieldExpression>
        </textField>
        <textField isStretchWithOverflow="true">
            <reportElement x="26" y="38" width="100" height="20"/>
            <textElement/>
            <textFieldExpression><![CDATA["A report is a textual work\n(usually of writing, speech, television, or film)\nmade with the specific intention of \nrelaying information"]]></textFieldExpression>
        </textField>
    </band>
</title>
