Since I did a reset of 2.0 (wanted to have the same number people are getting now), I've been using Delima. The hyphen issue really hasn't bothered me. The size I use is the one I tested on in the second batch. It works for me  . |
I think it depends on a lot of things like the book itself, the font and the fontsize etc.
But yes, that explain it. Some people might get hyphens that rarely (and might only have correct hyphens) and are therefore not bothered by them - or maybe haven't even realized there are hyphens at all.
By now I have changed the German hyphen.dic (with help of a file provided by WS64) in a way that I don't have any hyphens at all (60 characters before the hyphen, 4 after - words that long are unlikely going to be in my books
).
And it seems to me that page turns are faster now that there's no hyphenation. Could be my imagination, though...
