How do you make your MOBIs? The only soft-hyphens I've seen become "hard" hyphens (non-optional) are hard hyphens created by something like Abbyy. Are you exporting HTML to a zip, or...?

ETA: Sorry, I see you are asking; I lost the thread for a moment, so to speak. I can't say for certain about "CTRL+-," because I haven't used that in 20 years, but Word-created soft-hyphens for hyphenation purposes at line-ends don't "convert" into hard-dashes/hyphens if the ebook is made via HTML export. I can't say anything beyond that.

You're saying that Word-created line-end hyphens are showing up in a Kindle file? Made how?
