Adding a Discretionary Hyphen
You can add discretionary hyphens within a document, which will override the default hyphenation settings.
To add a discretionary hyphen:
1. Place the cursor where you want the hyphenation to occur, if a break point is needed when the document is published.
2. Choose Format > Touchup > Discretionary Hyphen or enter insert_tag_hyphen-point on the command line. The appropriate icon appears.
