Oh.  The information I was given was wrong. Thank you for the clarification.

Please see UEB Rules 8.4.3 and 8.4.5 which also include braille examples.

In UEB there is no dividing/hyphenation of words between lines.

I have noticed that DBT doesn't automatically split hyphenated words between 
lines. Usually I leave it that way, but we are working on "James and the Giant 
Peach" which has a character named Old-Green-Grasshopper. DBT keeps pushing the 
entire name (22 cells) to a new line instead of splitting it between lines, 
leaving big holes in the text. Is there a formatting command or setting that I 
can use to get it to split the name after one of the hyphens?
