in the main word list

Changing hyphen options and position

You can choose how words are hyphenated. Words can be separated with a hyphen, space, or

soft return. You can also ignore the hyphenation prompt and let the word wrap to the next line.

You can change the position of hyphens in words.
Hyphenation options are available only when automatic hyphenation is enabled and when the

document is set to prompt you when a word needs hyphenation. For information about enabling

hyphenation, see “Hyphenating text” on page 70.

Insert hyphen — inserts a hyphen, which displays and prints only when the word spans

the hyphenation zone

Insert space — divides the word by adding a space between the letters you specify

Hyphenation SRt — divides the word by putting a soft return between the letters you

specify when the word spans the hyphenation zone

Ignore word — prevents the word from being hyphenated

When the prompt for hyphenation is set to Never, the Position hyphen dialog box

does not display.
