How to prevent badly cut words in LaTeX?












0














Here is the thought. I wish if there is any package or syntax in LaTeX that makes any arbitrary documentclass to cut words as less as possible? I mean for the sake of sentences at the end in a two-columned document class, I faced this so often that I face words got cut which makes the text so ugly.

    You can use usepackage[none]{hyphenat} or just put hyphenpenalty=10000exhyphenpenalty=10000 in the preamble. It would be better to provide some MWE so that specific advice can be given.

  • @HarishKumar I just want a reasonable hyphenation. currently, in a two page column I got like 50% of all sentences to be hyphenated.

    OK, in that case add usepackage{microtype} in the pramble (say just before begin{document} and you will see the change. Or use something like hyphenpenalty=3000exhyphenpenalty=3000 just before begin{document} adjust the 3000 accordingly. 10000 is the maximum where no hyphenation takes place. You have to reduce the value as suitable.

You can set the hyphenation penalty.



hyphenpenalty=10000 removes the hyphenation completely.


Instead you can set it to your required tolerance by decreasing the number from 10000 to any other number.
