Hyphenation

Text is hyphenated if the parameter  is set
to true and a valid hyphenation dictionary is set. pslib does not ship its own
hyphenation dictionary but uses one from openoffice, scribus or koffice.
You can find their dictionaries for different languages in one of the
following directories if the software is installed:

Currently scribus appears to have the most complete hyphenation
dictionaries.
