Smart Hyphen CS35.0.1

Smart Hyphen incorporates the best hyphenation functionality available into Adobe InDesign and InCopy, while considerably extending the set of available languages, too.

Excellent hyphenation results in less time

Correct hyphenation directly affects the quality and appearance of your publication, as it determines the white space distribution and text flow on your page. Having a first-class hyphenator at hand will at the same time speed up your production, reduce proofing rounds, and ensure consistency in your communication.

Including new words

Smart Hyphen is based on the advanced hyphenation technology provided by the language institute *TALO, the world leader in language tools for the professional publishing industry. It uses refined linguistic principles with language-specific models. Its understanding of language is almost human, resulting in correct hyphenation, even with complex compounds. New words are hyphenated correctly with the *TALO technology too - very convenient for magazines and newspapers that have to deal with new words on a daily basis.Smart Hyphen’s extensive list of supported languages also lets you hyphenate languages that are not supported within the Adobe applications. Without it, your options would be not to hyphenate, or to select a language that comes close, both being poor solutions. Within one language, Smart Hyphen may offer different language variations to bias the style to your preferences even more precise.Company-wide consistent hyphenationIn larger environments where editors and designers are both working individually on the same publication, consistent hyphenation company-wide is essential to ensure exact copyfit of the editor’s texts in the designer’s layout. Smart Hyphen offers this functionality. Also, exceptions can be memorized and reused, either by a single user, or throughout the entire organization.Smart Hyphen CS3 is a useful plugin that extends the functionality of a powerful tool like Adobe InDesign.
