The Adobe hyphenation diction as it comes has

LEFTHYPHENMIN 5
RIGHTHYPHENMIN 5

The configuration parameter lefthyphenmin specifies the minimal length of a word prefix that can be separated from a word through hyphenation. The righthyphenmin parameter specifies the minimal length for a suffix.

So you would need a word of at least 10 letters and it would only hyphenate if at least 5 letters were in front of the hyphen and at least 5 letters behind the hyphen. This basically can leave a lot of gaps in lines where a hyphen would normally work fine. I've used a left of 2 and a right of 3. I'm thinking of changing it to a right of 2. But I'll test it before posting an update.
