Hyphenation problem
Hi lyxers, I'm having a perplexing problem. I'm using the Cardo font, which enables the use of English, Hebrew, and Greek on the same page easily. But I can't get curl quotes to work. They work with this font in Open Office. So why not in Lyx? Louis

Hyphenation problem with two languages
Hello I have a problem with hyphenation when I use two or more character sets in the same document. If i leave the English as the default document language the hyphenation does not work, when the text is in another language (i.e Greek). When I select Greek as the default language the hyphenation does work but then only Greek characters are displayed, and in order to display English I have to use tex commands or to use the text style button which is inconvenient. Can I do anything about it? Thank you in advance for you help sn

Wonderfull, I still use KDE 1 and I do not think about switch (I have been told, that KDE 2 is useless without at least 64MB RAM -- I have 32MB and I have left M$ Windows among other reasons because I did not want to be pushed by the Bill to buy new computer every two years :-(.

What this means is that the parts that control the GUI (xforms, gnome, or kde) are localised, which makes it easier to port. I, with some help from the other developers, am working on the KDE 1 frontend. This wil enable a KLyX style frontend to LyX. In time, a KDE 2 frontend will also exist. However, this will take some time. thanks john -- "The majority of the stupid is invincible and guaranteed for all time.

Q: Hyphenation problem
I have a problem with hyphenation. I have searched the Lyx archives. The proposed solutions say that I should install a newer version of tex (I was using tex-0.9 that came with Redhat 6.0). I installed the newest version I could find 1.0.6 from Redhat 6.2 package. However, nothing has changed. I have tried sloopypar, \nolinebreak[], but no way. The only way I can solve it is state the hyphenation for each word that is hyphened in the latex preamble, but this is not a meaningful solution. The problem is that words may get hyphened just after the second letter (like at-tractive, or-ganization, etc). It may be syntactically correct, but doesn't look good. I would like to limit the number of letters that get hyphened out, or at least disable hyphenation at all in the document. Best regards, Tuna

hyphenation problem
Hi, There is a passage in my thesis which looks like this: "bla bla bla-, bla bla" LATEX thinks that the dash is a hyphen and does a line break BEFORE the comma. (I didn't write it with CTRL- of course.) So the next line begins with a comma, which is far from what I intended. I found a workaround simply by writing the dash in the math environment, but this shouldn't be the way to prevent this. Any ideas? Regards Christoph Friedrich
