I did the frame bit and nothing happened. But when I changed the preferences for hyphenation I found that I did not have any language choices, which leads me to believe that there is a hyphen file missing. I have Open Office installed. Is that the source for the hyphen file or should I download one elsewhere? What would be the file name for (American) English?
