Control hyphenation

When you add a word to a personal dictionary, FrameMaker suggests hyphenation points. You can change them before adding the word. You can also specify that a word is always or never hyphenated. For example, you can hyphenateheavy duty wherever it appears but never hyphenate your company name.

After making hyphenation changes, rehyphenate the document.

tip:   For strict control over hyphenation (for example, before printing the final draft of a book), consider searching your document for all hyphens that FrameMaker has inserted automatically. Choose Auto­matic Hyphen from the Find pop-up menu in the Find/Change dialog box.
