Reply To: Mystery of missing hyphens when importing Word documents into InD CS6

D’you know what it was? On the Google InDesign group I was advised by a couple of people that perhaps I should search for alternative hyphens. It turns out, in the latest book docs, that every single one of the ‘missing’ hyphens was a nonbreaking hyphen and that it’s known in Word version 7 although MS apparently issued a patch for it. Isn’t that amazing?! Oh I’m so grateful to these groups.
