TICKETS WITH SEALED BRICKS (-)

When a word is too long, does not fit into the end of the line, Word will move from one line to the new beginning instead of hyphenating it. However, you can use the Hyphenation feature to automatically join or hyphenate the text, setting the maximum number of distances allowed between a word and the right margin without hyphenating it.

When using the auto hyphenation feature, Word 2007 automatically inserts hyphens into the necessary locations. When hyphenating by hand, Word will find the text to hyphenate and ask if you want to insert the hyphen.

Automatically insert hyphens in the entire document

- Make sure no text is selected.

- In the Page Layout tab, the Page Setup group, press the Hyphenation button, then select Automatic.

Insert arbitrary hyphens

You can control the interrupt position of a word or phrase if the word 'drops' at the end of the line. For example, you can specify an interrupt position of the word 'nonprinting' as 'non-printing' instead of 'nonprint-ing'.

- In the Home tab, Paragraph group, press Show / Hide button.

- Click on the location in the word where you want to insert the hyphen.

- Hold Ctrl and press the hyphen key.

Automatically insert hyphens in a document section

- Select the text you want to hyphenate.

Manual hyphenation in a document section

When you hyphenate it manually, Word 2007 will find the text to hyphenate. After you specify the location you want to hyphen in the text, Word inserts an arbitrary hyphen. If you later edit the document and change the line breaks, Word will only display and print the hyphens that still fall at the end of the line without resuming the document.

- Select the text you want to hyphenate.

- In the Page Layout tab, the Page Setup group, click the Hyphenation button, then select Manual.

Inserting a hyphen without interruption

Non-breaking hyphens help prevent words, numbers, or phrases from being interrupted if it falls at the end of a line. For example, you can prevent 999-1234 from being interrupted midway, instead the entire sequence of numbers will be moved to the beginning of the next line.

- Click where you want to insert the hyphen without interruption.

- Hold down Ctrl, Shift and press the hyphen.
