However, boxing the word is not really advisable -unless you are sure it only occurs once. -<p/>If the word occurs commonly, the best choice is to assert a -non-hyphenation for it: -<blockquote> -<pre> -\hyphenation{oddword} -</pre> -</blockquote><p> -This hyphenation exception (with no break points) will be used in -preference to what TeX’s hyphenation algorithm may come up with. -<p/>In a multilingual document, repeat the exception specification for -each language the word may appear in. So: -<blockquote> -<pre> -\usepackage[french,english]{babel} -\selectlanguage{english} -\hyphenation{oddword} -\selectlanguage{french} -\hyphenation{oddword} -</pre> -</blockquote><p> -(note that <i>babel</i> will select the default language for the -document — English, in this case — at <code>\</code><code>begin{document}</code>.) -<p/>A particular instance of this requirement is avoiding the hyphenation -of acronyms; a general rule for those that concoct acronyms seems to -be to make the capital-letter sequence read as near as is possible -like a “real” word, but hyphenating an acronym often looks silly. -The TeX flag <code>\</code><code>uchyph</code> is designed for suppressing such -behaviour: -<blockquote> -<pre> -\uchyph=0 -</pre> -</blockquote><p> -will stop hyphenation of upper-case words. (Note that Plain TeX -syntax is needed here: there’s no LaTeX alternative for setting -this value.) -<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=wdnohyph">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=wdnohyph</a> -</body> |
