So do you write in preamble:
\hyphenation\input{lexikon} ?
I am currently encountering numerous problems in my document.
I wrote the hints from
http://www.texnik.de/language/hyphen.phtml#sloppy
in my preamble but still get some ugly things like:
[I write in German...]
Un- instead of Unter-
ternehmen nehmen
or
Wirtschaft- instead of Wirtschafts-
sraumes raumes
or
Determinan
ten
or
pro-
jektbezogen
inländis-
sche
So some hyphenations are just wrong and error occour mainly in composed words.
Is there anything you can adjust to address the composed word problem?
Thank you for any hint.
