[xep-support] Making long words in table cells expand the cell height instead of condensing characters

[Alexander Peshkov]

Hello Lars,

Breaking lines at the space characters is not a hyphenation thus XEP
would not insert hyphens. Instead of explicit zero-width characters
you may try to use hyphenation mechanism, that is set hyphenate="true"
and specify desired language (e.g. language="en"). In this case when
long word do not fit into the table cell XEP will try to perform
hyphenation of this word if possible and in case of hyphenation hyphen
symbol will be inserted. Note however that this approach is feasible
only for 'natural' text and will fail for string of numbers, URLs and
other staff like that.

Best regards,

LW> Hi,

LW> is it possible to tell XEP to place a hyphen before the zero-width space in case of a line break?

LW> Example:
LW> long​word
->>
LW> long-
LW> word

LW> Thanks in advance.
