fb2 hyphenation in coolreader

[leandroide]

Hi all!

Thanks to johansolo, from www.lectoreselectronicos.com, I bring here a solution for the hyphenation problem in coolreader.

It's very simple: modify your fb2.css including hyphenate:none in tag body.

For example, body in my fb2.css now is:

body {
text-align: justify;
text-indent: 2em;
font-family: Liberation Sans, sans-serif;
font-size: 95%;
font-style: normal;
line-height: normal;
hyphenate: none;
}

This way words are not divided between lines.

Regards,

L.

But if the hyphenation works, then most people will want it on. It will help with not having as many lines with larger word spacing.

Yes... if it works. In Spanish, hyphenation is incorrect many times, and in English it makes strange things sometimes. Or so they say:

With no hyphenation word spacing is not specially large. English tends to have shorter words than Spanish, and in Spanish this effect is not noticiable. Maybe this can be a problem in languages like German, with longer words...
