This plugin really improves the reading experience. Thank you so much.

Spanish and English hyphenation dictionaries from LibreOffice worked well.

I have a question, though: could anybody tell me how to create a custom column to display which books have already been hyphenated? I see in the bottom of the plugin settins window a field named "Column name", which I've named "Hyphenated". Then I've manually created and added a custom column named "Hyphenated, which shows in Calibre after a restart but doesn't display any information automatically. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

@kenzaburo03,
I've just tried this myself, it seems to be working OK.

When you created your column did you have:
Lookup name: hyphenated (NB must be all lowercase)
Column heading: anything you like
Column type: Text, column shown in tag browser

Then in the Hyphenate This plugin Settings option:
Column name: #hyphenated (NB must have the # in front of your custom column name)

Then, when you hyphenate some epubs you should see your custom column populated with the relevant text (as per your Settings).

@jackie_w,
Thank you so much! I've followed your instructions and it's worked perfectly.

How did you figure out the proper settings? Does the plugin have a help file or instructions somewhere or is this the usual way to create custom columns that relate to plugins? I did a lot of Google search before asking for help here, so I'd feel kind of dumb if the answer was in front of me to begin with.

Anyway, thanks again!

You're welcome I've been using calibre for 4 years -- it gets easier to absorb the many features over time. I'm often glad that I'm not trying to take it all in once like a new user has to do. I also read these forums a lot -- goldmines of helpful info.

Welcome to MobileRead.

Edit: Some plugins have a clickable help button, but even if they don't, post #1 should always contain user help info (often under a 'spoiler' button) like this one does.

So the solution actually was in front of me all along. Oh, dear... I'll make sure I read the instructions in the OP from now on. Thanks again!

I've had my Kindle (which is my first eReader) for a month now, so I've got plenty to learn about Calibre. I'm sure reading this forum will make it much easier, there's a lot of great information here.

I've noticed the Spanish hyphenation dictionaries available for LibreOffice work mostly well, but still break some words wrong from time to time. After searching for an alternative, I've found this Spanish hyphenation dictionary based on the TeX hyphenation patterns that seems to work better. I haven't yet found a single hyphenation mistake.

I've found it here: https://github.com/vicamo/b2g_releas...es/hyphenation

It's released under the Mozilla Public License (details of the license inside the zip).

Hi, I have a problem.

Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "calibre_plugins.hyphenatethis.hyphenatethisaction", line 115, in hyphenate
  File "calibre_plugins.hyphenatethis.hyphenatethisaction", line 89, in _select_books

  File "calibre_plugins.hyphenatethis.hyphenator.hyphenator", line 89, in __init__
LookupError: unknown encoding: <!DOCTYPE html>
I converted .doc file to epub with upup2epub converter, it opens ok. And tried to make haphernates with calibre. This error happens after I press "Hyphernate.." button.
Book and .dic file in attach files.
What should i do?

Hello,

Get correct hyphenation dictionary. The one you've attached is some HTML file, not a dictionary itself. As dictionary is malformed, hyphenator cannot use it. Of course, error message is a bit misleading, but the final conclusion—dictionary's incorrect.

Удачи.

I found this .dic and .oxt files and got no errors. But there are no any changes with text.
They are wrong too? Maybe you have correct .dics?

No, this one is good and works like a charm. I have tried your book and it was hyphenated successfully. (See attachment.)

However, you won't see any hyphenation in Calibre, you'd need to check the book's source with Sigil or similar. Next question is if your reader supports soft hyphens. That I cannot guarantee.

Today I've noticed the dictionary in Kindle won't pick the hyphenated words (doesn't recognize them as a single word). Is the fault with the plugin or with the Kindle firmware? Thanks.

Hi,

The only idea I have is corrupted or incorrect dictionary. Error comes from other open source library I've used. So it would be best if you could share your dictionary and sample book (if possible).

This is a feature of Kindle firmware. With hyphenated words it acts a bit awkwardly: if it finds a part of word at hyphen in dictionary, it displays that part. If not, it ends with full word. I have this issue myself, when dictionary is required. Also, Kindle's dictionary handling is not very smart by itself.
