Adjusting hyphenation and justification
Hyphenation and justification
The settings you choose for hyphenation and justification affect the horizontal spacing of lines and the aesthetic
appeal of type on your pages. Hyphenation options determine whether words can be hyphenated and, if they can,
which breaks are allowable.
Justification is controlled by the alignment option you choose, the word spacing and letterspacing you specify, and
whether or not you have used glyph scaling. For information on justifying single words in narrow columns of fully
justified text, see
“To set justification for a single word” on page 235.
To adjust hyphenation manually
You can hyphenate words manually or automatically, or you can use a combination of the two methods. The safest
way to hyphenate manually is to insert a discretionary hyphen, which is not visible unless the word needs to be broken
at the end of a line.
1 Using the Type tool , click where you want to insert the hyphen.
2 Choose Type > Insert Special Character > Discre-tionary Hyphen.
Note: Entering a discretionary hyphen in a word does not guarantee that the word will be hyphenated. Whether or not
the word breaks depends on other hyphenation and composition settings. Entering a discretionary hyphen in a word
does, however, guarantee word can be broken only where the discretionary hyphen appears.
