[duxuser] Re: SMALL PROBLEM

Hi Susan,

You'll find details of this in 10.4's Help, in The Menus, Document, then Hyphen 
table.

Essentially, it you place a hyphen or dash (-) where you wish the word to be 
split, and have "Dashes & Hyphens" checked, it will do what you want.

So if you write "insig-nificant" it will end the line with "insig-" (i.e. ends 
with dots 3,6) and put "nificant" on the next line.
