Specifying hyphenation exceptions
In QuarkXPress, you can create language-specific lists of hyphenation
exceptions. The Hyphenation Exceptions dialog box (Utilities > Hyphenation
Exceptions > Edit) has a Language drop-down menu that lets you specify which
language a hyphenation exception applies to. When a paragraph is
automatically hyphenated, the application checks the list of hyphenation
exceptions for the appropriate paragraph language.
The Hyphenation Exceptions dialog box
The Suggested Hyphenation dialog box (Utilities menu) displays the
recommended hyphenation of a word that is based on the hyphenation
method specified for the paragraph and the hyphenation exceptions for the
paragraph’s language.
Hyphenation exception files
Hyphenation exception lists can be stored in separate .xml files. These .xml files
can than be imported into your project and also exported and shared with other
users and projects. This allows the same list of hyphenation exceptions to be
used in multiple projects.
Hyphenation exception files can be imported and applied at the layout level so
different layouts in the same project can have separate .xml files applied. You
apply the desired external hyphenation exception file to a layout through a Job
Jacket, as a job jacket resource. (see “Job Jackets with hyphenation exceptions”)
After you have applied a hyphenation exception file to a project, if you change
anything in the .xml file, these changes will be reflected in the project the next
time you open the project. In addition, any changes made to hyphenation
exceptions in the project will be reflected in the linked .xml file.
