+<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label hyphenaccents</title>
+</head><body>
+<h3>Accented words aren't hyphenated</h3>
+<p>TeX's algorithm for hyphenation gives up when it encounters an
+<code>\</code><code>accent</code> command; there are good reasons for this, but it means
+that quality typesetting in non-English languages can be difficult.
+<p>For TeX macro packages, you can avoiding the effect by using an
+appropriately encoded font (for example, a Cork-encoded font - see
+<a href="FAQ-ECfonts.html">the EC fonts</a>) which contains accented
+letters as single glyphs. LaTeX users can achieve this end simply
+by adding the command
+<pre>
+ \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
+</pre>
+to the preamble of their document. Other encodings (notably
+LY1, once promoted by Y&amp;Y inc)
+
+
+
+may be used
+in place of T1. Indeed, most current 8-bit TeX font
+encodings will 'work' with the relevant sets of hyphenation patterns.
+<p>In the future, perhaps, <a href="FAQ-omega.html">Omega</a> will provide a rather
+different solution.
