Hi,
I'm doing brochure layout for a global business and got into trouble with hyphenation. I'm using English (UK) -setting in the document and it's hyphenating (splitting) words at the end of the line in strange places. For example, the word conductivity is split conduct-ivity which seems strange to me. When I change the language settings to English (US), the word is split conduc-tivity.
Is there a difference in how words are split between British English and American English? Or is it just an error in the layout program?
Many thanks for your assistance!
