- Anyone have a clue on this one? When printing out, some conditional hyphens
- behave oddly. The line breaks OK, and the word is split between the two
- lines but sometimes, maybe once in 25 cases, there is no hy
- phen (just like this) in the end of the upper line. Any ideas?
-
- I used No Justification. The anomalous lines were not particularly long
- or short. The text was mainly Finnish, with long words and lots of
- manually inserted conditional hyphens. I first suspected that there were
- multiple hidden hyphens in a row in those bad cases, but no, that did not
- seem to be the case. I'm using Times Roman (ff5) on a HP Laserjet III
- over a Novell network, if that makes a difference.
- I haven't done anything to the HY setting, so I guess it's on and
- maybe I should turn it off and see whether the problem persists?
