Text Tip: Hyphenation of Text in Publisher 2010

While in specific instances hyphenation in a document may be necessary, as a general rule, it’s best to turn off hyphenation in your design layouts.  You can accomplish this several ways in Publisher.  To make the change globally (throughout Publisher), go to the File tab and choose Options.  Then select Advanced and from the Editing Options region, deselect Automatically hyphenate in new text boxes.  To change hyphenation rules for a specific text box, select the box and go to the Text Box Tools, Format contextual tab.  Click the Hyphenation button and deselect the Automatically hyphenate this story box.  This will do away with hyphenation for this text box and all connected text boxes.
