Hi,
@JSWolf, in the firmware the default setting for french are 2 and 3 which is quite ok ; but i already modified them to 2 and 2 some time ago. Anyway, the way nickel uses the hyphenation dic is bad (the dic itself is alright (or at least, was alright each time I checked the rules after finding an error) and I really can’t stand it). Hyphenate this ! does the job right but it’s tedious and I don’t like to introduce shy hyphens everywhere in my books. So I tested Koreader which is OK. I just needed to remove the soft hyphens and it’s done. I’ll spend the summer with it, I’ll see.

@Roger64 - yup, Koreader will do the trick. Really quicker with pdf but somewhat slower with some of my biggest epub (like the one with all balzac’s work in one epub : bad idea)
