My word assumes biobank can be hyphenated as bi-obank.

Hello, all my fellow bi-obanks.

Just found out how to fix #hyphenation not working in #Scribus on #Fedora #Linux (probably for #languages that aren't system language).

Check that the text frame, character and paragraph styles are all the correct language (in my case German on an English system). If Extras > Hyphenate Text still isn't working, go to Windows > Resources > Hyphenation Dictionaries and check that you have the correct .dics installed (for me it was only English).

Tadaa

Not just unfortunate #typography with disturbing #hyphenation, but it's ETCHED IN STONE!

This instant classic by @Richr is still the best post about #hyphenation on the Web IMHO.

And Richard updated it in January!

I had forgotten how much time cross-browser compatibility research takes. I now spent about 6 hours on #hyphenation in three browsers and four languages.

And Firefox doesn't hyphenate ALL-CAPS words in any language, but this is clearly a bug.

Yesterday I looked at three Dutch hyphenation rules lists, and I even called a Dutch language help line I didn't know existed, but it is categorically allowed in Dutch, and Firefox is doing it wrong. I suspect the same is true for German and French.

Then the only outstanding #css #hyphenation question is why English ALL-CAPS words aren't hyphenated in any browser.

Is there a rule for this in English hyphenation? If so, what do you do with acronyms such as UNICEF?

Interesting. My Edge/Windows does not have a Dutch dictionary, while Chrome on the same system does. So dictionaries are now proven to be applied on a per-browser basis, and not a per-system one.

Also, why does a Dutch-language Edge lack the Dutch dictionary?

@frischefarbe I hope it was okay to include your #hyphenation slides as screenshots. I ran out of time and your presentation at TUG was splendid.

One week ago, I gave my talk about #DigitalTypesetting. Main points were:

(1) Digital typesetting is difficult; has many requirements; some originate from manual typesetting
(2) There are plenty of standards to follow. #Unicode is [for me personally the most important] one.
(3) #HarfBuzz is an important component. I presented the #hyphenation algorithm with slides by @frischefarbe

On 7th of February 2023, I will give a talk [0] on digital typesetting here in #Graz. I don't think there is going to be a recording, but I will share the slides at this URL [1].

I will focus on a requirement analysis, discuss existing solutions and will present my own software project #typho. If you are interested, join me!
