Then:
\begin{example}
Some text
\end{example}
Output is:
Example 1. Some text
What is the way to automatically obtain without indent:
Example 1.
Some text
?
I tried to write:
\begin{example}
\\Some text
\end{example}
But there are two drawbacks, first it must be done every-time, second drawback is that it doesn't compile and
Latex error is:

thmtools may help, otherwise switch to the ntheorem pacakge and learn to use it. It also have a
concept, but it is not about the fonts (as it is with ), \theoremstyle amsthm \theoremstyle{break}
will do what you want daleif May 20 '11 at 15:16

Here's an example of the required new style definition using :amsthm
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\newtheoremstyle{mystyle}% name
{3pt}%Space above
{3pt}%Space below
{\normalfont}%Body font
{0pt}%Indent amount
{\itshape}% Theorem head font
{.}%Punctuation after theorem head
{\newline}%Space after theorem head 2
{}%Theorem head spec (can be left empty, meaning ‘normal’)
\theoremstyle{mystyle}
\newtheorem{exam}{Example}
\begin{document}
\begin{exam}
Test exam

\end{exam}
\end{document}
Here's an example using now the predefined style from the
package:
break ntheorem
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{ntheorem}
\theoremstyle{break}
\theoremheaderfont{\normalfont\itshape}
\theorembodyfont{\normalfont}
\theoremseparator{.}
\newtheorem{exam}{Example}
\begin{document}
\begin{exam}
Test exam
\end{exam}
\end{document}
Finally, here's an example using and as its backend:thmtools amsthm
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{thmtools}
\declaretheoremstyle[
spaceabove=3pt, spacebelow=3pt,
headfont=\normalfont\itshape,
notefont=\normalfont, notebraces={(}{)},
bodyfont=\normalfont,
postheadspace=\newline,
qed=\qedsymbol
]{mystyle}
\declaretheorem[style=mystyle]{example}
\begin{document}
\begin{example}
Test exam
\end{example}
\end{document}
