Hyphenating text
You can turn on automatic hyphenation for a document or a selection. FreeHand uses the
selected document language to determine where hyphenation should be placed.
You can also insert discretionary hyphens at specific points in the text. Discretionary hyphens
allow lines to break at the points you specify, and only appear when they occur within a word that
breaks at the end of a line. For more information, see “Inserting special characters” on page 242.
To set hyphenation options:
1
Specify the text to which the hyphenation options will be applied:
•
To apply hyphenation to all text in a text block, select the entire text block. Selecting a linked
text block applies hyphenation options to all blocks in the linked set.
•
To apply hyphenation to selected text only, select the text with the Text tool.
•
To apply hyphenation only to a specific paragraph, click in the paragraph with the Text tool.
