Hello.
A question to specialists, Arthur and Mojca maybe :) Is it necessary to have
two sets of hyphenation rules, one in NFC and one in NFD? Or, if hyphenation
patterns are written in NFC, for instance, will they be applied correctly to a
document written in NFD?
Regards,
Yves

Dear Phil,
You should know better. :-)
In 1993 you invited me to give a talk about hyphenation at RHBNC. I started
out my lecture by demolishing the old chestnut that British is hyphenated
etymologically while American isn't. Reality is much more blurry.
Hugh Williamson got it right, as so

I've just had a stimulating conversation about this with my friend and
fellow Sanskritist, Alessandro Graheli (who also reads this XeTeX list, and
is doing critical editions of Sanskrit texts with XeTeX).
Alessandro was concerned that I overstated the case. He has used the

Hi Philip,
Thank you very much for your suggestion. I did try what you said, but
it doesn't fix the problem on my system. I now get three rotated

Thanks to Dominik for presenting my needs for hyphenating romanised

Few years ago, I have bought few fonts type 1 from Bitstream. Even,
if they are only type 1, they are sufficient for most of the documents

Alessandro and I agree to disagree about the issue of philological
correctness. I think that hyphenating following etymology, lexicon and
morphemic boundaries is *more* philological than break after a vowel. I
think what Alessandro means by philology in this case is that he is
influenced by the

I have a traditional poem with one line that has two short verses then one

Is there a way to prevent such work so all the poetry will be justified with

Ok, I'll contribute to this one. I learned programming on a IBM clone --a clone
of an IBM 1620 at Oregon State University in 1960.
We wrote a few programs and then were told about a fabulous new tool called
