associated kerning value for each pair in the table. You can't change a font's kerning table,
but you can create a custom kerning table for any font using the Kerning Table Edit dialog
box (Utilities menu). You can use this dialog box to customize both horizontal
(With-Stream) and vertical (Cross-Stream) space in kerning pairs.
You can create your own kerning tables in QuarkXPress.
Controlling hyphenation and justification
A hyphenation and justification (H&J) specification is a named package of settings for
hyphenating words that go over the margin of a line of text and for justifying spaces
between words and characters. You can apply H&Js to individual paragraphs, or you can
associate an H&J with a paragraph style sheet. Use the Edit Hyphenation & Justification
dialog box (Edit > H&Js > New) to control these settings.
The Edit Hyphenation & Justification dialog box
• Auto Hyphenation: Specify whether automatic hyphenation is allowed.
• Smallest Word: Specify the minimum number of characters a word must contain to allow
hyphenation.
• Minimum Before: Specify the minimum number of characters before a hyphen.
• Minimum After: Specify the minimum number of characters after a hyphen.
• Break Capitalized Words: Specify whether hyphenation of capitalized words is allowed.
• Hyphens in a Row: Specify how many words can be hyphenated in consecutive line ends.
