All you can really do is increase the number you use for the right-side from 2 to something bigger. It won't make the hyphenation problems disappear but it might make them slightly less irritating If you're using the calibre KoboTouchExtended driver to create your sideloaded kepubs I believe its config widget allows you to choose your hyphenation right/left values. |

Unfortunately I use kepubify, which is automatically called from within calibre-web. |

I don't use kepubify so I don't know exactly what options it has. I must admit I thought @geek1011 had replicated in kepubify all the calibre KTE options that existed at the time he wrote it. Maybe that's only in the kepubify version which runs on your local PC? I don't know. You'd have to ask in the dedicated kepubify thread to find out more.

Please where I can find something similar for italian? You kindly provided me with one, but it was very small, smaller than the stock one, so it was splitting words even less frequently. That german dictionary is more than 266K!

Code:
-webkit-hyphens: auto; -webkit-hyphenate-limit-after: 3; -webkit-hyphenate-limit-before: 3; -webkit-hyphenate-limit-lines: 2; -webkit-hyphenate-limit-chars: 6; My technical knowledge of hyphenation stuff is sketchy at best but my observation is that in kepub this CSS will override whatever values exist in hyph_en.dic such as Code:
LEFTHYPHENMIN 2 RIGHTHYPHENMIN 2 I'm not convinced that property -webkit-hyphenate-limit-chars is supported at all by kepubs. I don't know why KTE includes it ... but maybe I'm wrong. I never use -webkit-hyphenate-limit-lines myself. I figure kepubs need all the help they can get without applying a consecutive lines limit. I've no reason to believe it doesn't work if you want to use it. |

So it will be better to use either the dictionary or the KTE driver, but not both, right?

I see. I have set the KTE to minimum 2 to before and after, and that is the same to your dictionary if I am not mistaken, so it should work nice together.
Thanks! |

I don't really know the file format and haven't read the entire thread. So sorry if I missed something. But I wonder if it is intentional that the LEFTHYPHENMIN and RIGHTHYPHENMIN lines are missing in the German file (but included in EN_US).

Please try the German hyphenation dictionary and see what you get. Does it work properly? If not, I'll edit it and post a beta.

Well I do see some funny hyphen results, as mentioned some posts before. I added the two missing lines and think that it is better now. But as I said, I'm not an expert and I was hoping that someone could say more about it.
