AW: [xep-support] French hyphenation bug ?

Salue Jacques,

Sometimes the rules in the hyphenation file (originally from TeX/LaTeX) may
be incomplete. So you have to add a rule. The easiest way to see, if the
hyphenation file works, is to add a rule with the whole word, as ex.
'pan5ther'. Looking at the french file it seems anyway that there is no rule
for how to hyphen 'nthe' (an 'n' before a 'th').

Betreff: [xep-support] French hyphenation bug ?

Hello folks,

Last year I found something strange in french hyphenation result.

The word administrateur is cut like admi-nistrateur (the correct cut is
admin-istrateur). An other exemple, the word Panther is cut like
Pa-nther (the correct cut is Pan-ther).

I am sure that all my file have the xml:lang="fr" déclaration :

<book xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" xml:lang="fr"
xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" version="5.0">

I used a bad workaround : adding a non-breaking before each bad
hyphenation result.

But I really would like to find a real solution.

I suppose I'm not alone with that.

Best regards,

-- 
Jacques
