Subject: Manual hyphenation
Date: Wed, 23 May 2007 20:48:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e65d34bf0705231248g4bcaa48r48a004f7574caaca@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I found that my text, which is set in two columns, looks better with
auto-hyphenation disabled using:

\setupalign[nothyphenated]

There are however several over-hanging words that I will need ConTeXt
to hyphenate. I've searched the mailing list and manual and have found
no information on how to do this. The info I did find was about how to
influence the automatic hyphenation. How do I manually indicate to
ConTeXt that a word should be hyphenation. For example if I wanted to
manually force a page break or column break I would use \page and
\column respectively, but what about hyphenation? At the moment I'm
using:

... document-\crlf ation ...


to manually create a hyphenation. Is there a better way?

TIA,

Elliot
