Hi,

FM12. I would like better control of hyphenation, such as never hyphenating the last word of a paragraph. Ideas?

Cheers,

Sean

The requirement to not hyphenate the last word in a paragraph sounds like an ideal case for an Extendscript.

The only other controls are those found in the Paragraph designer, such as the number of consecutive lines that can be hyphenated.

The manual that FM used to have specifically covered that via a hyphen-count hack (page 111 of the FM7 manual), but it's probably simpler to just type Esc_n_s when typing in that last word.
