 Is this hyphenation or quotes issue? If it's quotes, did you play with

Hyphenation problem

[Louis Turk]

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?

Hyphenation problem with two languages

[snvv]

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?

Several developers are working towards GUI independence of the LyX core
code. 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.

Q: Hyphenation problem

[Tuna Tugcu]

   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

try \sloppy in latex preamble. \sloppypar is only valid for next
paragraph.

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?

are you sure, that there is a space behind the comma???
without a space it's just as you described it, but with a 
space, latex does it well!

There is a space behind and a dash before the comma. Honestly.
