We don't have to do that any more. The bookshare programs do it for us now. Misha On 4/13/2012 7:26 PM, Ixchel, Jackie wrote:

Wouldn’t that fix remove all hyphens, such as in Cindy’s example of mother-in-law? Sue S.

To remove optional hyphens, I think that you do this: Open find and replace dialogue by pressing control+h In the find box type ^- In the replace box type nothing Tab to "okay" and press enter. I think that's what Jamie taught me to do. Hope I've remembered correctly. Happy proofreading, and I hope you enjoy your new computer!

I believe that we are not required to remove them, but I would like to do so, but can't find instructions for doing so in the manual. Can anyone tell me the process for removing these hyphens? I'm going to be getting a new computer in several weeks but found this fairly short book I can complete proofreading before then, so hope I can remove these hyphens. Lori C.
