How can I prevent hyphenation InDesign CS6

I need to not have any hyphenation in a long document. Is there a way to set this preference so it prevents all hyphenation or at least only hyphenates really long words? I have this dumb hyphenation somehow and it's hyphenating 6 letter words. its making a mess of my file and I have to keep putting in shift returns....thanks!

Hi sj1122,
You can do this by unchecking the hyphenate check box in paragraph palette.
You can find paragraph palette here :- Type>Paragraph or  use keyboard shortcut (ctrl+alt+t on windows)(cmd+alt+t on mac).
Place the cursor anywhere in the paragraph you want to stop hyphenation and then uncheck the hyphenate checkbox in the paragraph palette.
If you want to hyphenate only longer words, you can do this by setting the length of words in Paragraph Styles.
For this follow the following steps:-
1. Press F11.
2. Click create new style icon.
3. Double click on the newly created paragraph style.
4. Go to Hyphenation option from the list given.
Here you can make changes according to your need.
Thanks
Vivek Ranjan.

  • Where/How can I update to Indesign CS6 8.01 or 8.02 ?

    Due to problems within Interactive PDF's exported from Indesign I need to update my CS6 to a newer version - 8.01 or 8.02. 
    From looking through other threads it seems the interactive PDF problem was a bug which is now fixed in newer versions - (got that info here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/4482056#4482056)
    Adobe - InDesign : For Macintosh : Adobe InDesign CS6 8.0.2 update - All Languages
    The problem is when I follow this link above through to download the software update the links are all invalid or can't be found.
    Can anyone indicate where / how I can update the software?
    CC is not an option as I work for a studio and I need to remain on CS6 to have the same software as the rest of the team to ensure easy file sharing.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Works just fine. You need to use another browser/ check your firewall and router settings.

    in Safari, certain
    characters like hyphens and apostrophes appear as
    black diamonds with question marks.
    This has nothing to do with fonts. It usually happens when your encoding is set wrong for a specific page. Panther Safari did not show these diamonds, but just displayed nothing, so people get the impression something has changed, but it really hasn't.
    In Safari, I'm using Unicode (UTF-8) as my default
    encoding. Is this setting correct?
    Not if you keep running into pages with black diamonds. It would be better to set your default to Western ISO Latin 1. The black diamonds will probably go away.

  • How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display?

    How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display? When I click Get Info, the "Open in Low Resolution" box is marked and locked. How can I unmark this box? I currently run 10.9.1. I can open Adobe Photoshop CS6 in high resolution without any problem. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    There is no such thing. In CS6 only PS itself is Retina compatible. You would have to use CC for full Retina support.

    You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
    in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend  a LOT of money
    on DRM protection.

  • Prior saved .pdf sometimes has blacked out content. How can I prevent this?

    I use Mac OS 9 Maverick, read email in Mail.app and Yahoo.Mail, switch between Safari and Firefox for browsing (because Safari does not allow Flash videos to appear on pages).  When I want to save an email or an html file or report as .pdf, I use Command-P and select Save As PDF from the Print popup.  Normally, I can go back years later and read the .pdf document in the Home File I filed it in using Adobe Reader.  Sometimes, however, when I open a .pdf file--and I cannot tell prior to opening it--all of the content has been blacked out.  It is as if someone redacted the document after filing it, which I don't do. 
    How can I prevent these redactions?  The content being blacked out varies from extremely personal and important health files to simple email correspondence I want to save.  Sometimes I have paid for a document and have to contact the publisher to send hard copy via USPS due to this problem.
    What am I missing here?  Do I need a specific plug-in?  Is there a way to retrieve the blacked-out content from my computer stored file?

  • How can I prevent Bridge from altering my photos?

    HELP!!!
    Within the past few days my Bridge CS4 program has been making my life miserable. I had been utilizing the program to batch photos from my extensive photo library, rename them, sort them (i.e., change sort/ordinal number), and the like without any difficulty and then suddenly, after executing such processes my thumbnails turned completely white and would not open in Bridge, Photoshop CS4 Extended - much less anything else. I tried reopening them as .jpg's, .psd's, .tiff's to no avail. I went into properties on each photo and checked the "open with" tab, and it noted that the photo was not recognized. I had some moderate success opening them with Quicktime Picture Viewer, but converting them back to a Bridge readable format (i.e., their original state) proved impossible. Having noticed that Quicktime had hijacked nearly my entire photo opening process, I uninstalled it in the hope that it would solve the problem. It didn't. I then went into Bridge and Photoshop CS4 preferences to try and modify how photos were opened, and couldn't seem to find anything applicable. I did, however, increase the memory and cache allocated to each program substantially.
    Last night I ran into more problems with Bridge. While scanning both photo negatives and prints into Bridge and saving them into various files, I encountered the same problem indicated in paragraph one. I tried scanning several of them a second time and succeeded; however, I had to save them to a different file and give them dissimilar names in .tiff format. In the process I found more than a dozen ways to spell "Mexico," "Tokyo," and "Ukraine"! They would not save as .jpg's or .psd's.
    I use Windows Vista Home Premium SP1, have a Pentium 4 Dual Core (2.8) processor, 4 GB Memory, Nvidia GE Force 7600 video card (yes, the drivers are up to date), and Hewlett Packard Photosmart C7180 and C7280 printers for scanning. All of the photos involved are stored on a Maxtor One Touch 1TB Turbo auxillary hard drive.
    Also, could anyone suggest how I can get the  SD/MMC card reader on my PC to work?
    Thanks to any and all for assisting me with my problem.

    Thank you curt y for your quick response. I have seen your recommendations on the adobe forums link in the past and many of your solutions
    seem to have helped other people with Bridge problems. I took your suggestion and gave it a whirl - all preferences were restored to defaults - and the problem continues. I get the feeling the problems lies with the program's interaction with Windows.
    Having tried a few more things, I've found that I can move the photo shell (the inscription underneath the thumbnail states, "Window Shell Common") to my desktop and open it there with Photoshop (i.e., going through the song and dance of "open with" and clicking on the CS4 icon, where it opens up in RAW). I must then move it over to Photoshop CS4 and save it as a .jpg or a .psd. Unfortunately, after all this it still won't open in Bridge. By all appearances, Bridge somehow has become corrupted and I'm probably going to have to do a complete Photoshop CS4 uninstall and reinstall.
    I've spent hundreds - if not thousands - of hours scanning into my system some 10,000 photographs of my travels (yes, they are backed up on discs), and Bridge should not be negatively impacting my ability to organize and manipulation them as is happening now. If the uninstall/reinstall does not resolve the problem, I'll be back on this forum for more suggestions.
    As for the card reader issue, I'm well aware of the 2GB/over 2GB issue. I typically use a 4GB or more card in my camera. I can download fine through my HP 7180 and 7280 card readers, but my HP 1518n card reader is a different story. I'll work a little more on it, too.
    Thanks again.

    Have you tried resetting your preferences by holding down the Ctrl key and starting Bridge?  You will get a reset window, choose all 3 options.
    The only thing I know about card readers is that there are 2 versions.  One for cards of 2 gigs or less, and one for HD cards over 2 gigs.  Make sure card and reader match.

  • How can I prevent the settings on iMessage from changing each time I sync the devices with iTunes on our iMac?

    Each time I sync an apple device (iPad, iPad mini, iPhone) with iTunes on our iMac the settings on iMessage and phone settings change. We use the same Apple ID and have different e-mail addresses and phone numbers; however, each time a device is sync'd on iTunes on our iMac, the iMessage settings and phone settings are changed so that we all each get each other's text messages and phone calls. After the device is sync'd/charged, I have to go into each device (all of them somehow update when only one is sync'ing) and re-set the settings to what we want. How can I prevent settings from being changed each time?

    Okay I've tried safe mode.  Let it run down to 98%, plugged it in, locked the screen, and waited.  A few minutes later, the screen came on showing the 100% icon at the top right, full battery icon just to the left of the time, 100% text to the left of that.
    I'm not going to do a hard reset until I have confirmation that this is not normal behavior for the phone because that's going to take hours of my time and gigabytes of data transfer to get all of my media and apps back on the phone and configured.
    After all my griping, I do have to give credit where it's due.  This phone is much more efficient than my Galaxy Nexus.  I left the S5 running in WiFi hotspot mode while on battery last night.  It still had over 50% left on the battery.  The Galaxy Nexus would be stone dead after about 4 hours.  I can live with that if I have to but I'd really rather be able to leave it on the charger at night.

    If your device is discoverable, the other BT device would try (I am not sure if that would be successful). If it was, it would appear in your system preferences>Bluetooth.
    Take a look at this re: security:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10786
    This is from another Apple article:
    Use Bluetooth
    You can wirelessly transfer files between computers—even Mac to PC—using the Bluetooth File Exchange utility. You can even browse selected devices and retrieve files remotely. For extra security, you can stipulate that only trusted devices be allowed to connect to your Mac, and 128-bit over-the-air encryption is also available

    P.S. Since I have not had the issue, I have not researched this before. Thank you for making me look into BT security

  • If I have multiple email accounts, how can I prevent one of them from sending email?

    If set up multiple email accounts in Thunderbird, how can I prevent one of them from sending email, while allowing others to send?

    Simple answer:
    do not use the email address when sending or replying or forwarding emails. Sending is not automatic, you have to generate the email and click on a Send button.
    You could use an smtp server that will not allow sending using the incorrect server for the email address, so that it cannot send, but if you accidentally use the email address you may get an error message, but at least the email will not be sent. Do this here:
    Tools > Account Settings for the mail account.
    bottom right Outgoing Server - select one that will not accept sending using wrong email address
    OR
    in Outgoing Server(SMTP) select the server you are using for that account
    click on 'Edit'
    deliberately make an error in the server name - remove the port details etc.
    So the details are wrong and cannot send.

  • How can I prevent two different profiles from interfering with one another?

    I have a serious profiles problem. I created a new profile with Profile Manager and then copied a well-established profile's contents into its directory before starting the new profile. Now, when I start either profile, it contains whatever tabs I had in the previously opened profile. I deleted a bunch of tabs and a window from the new profile but when I opened it after having opened and closed the old profile, the tabs and window reappeared. If I open some tabs in the new profile and then close it and open the old profile, the tabs appear in it, and vice versa.
    I open the original profile through a shell script:
    <pre>/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P "profile 1"</pre>
    I open the second one the same way but with the <i>-no-remote</i> parameter:
    <pre>/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P "profile 1 clone" -no-remote</pre>
    Why do the two profiles collide like that and how can I prevent this from happening?

    Are you using Sync then ?
    Or are you setting a bunch of tabs as the homepage ?
    If you cloned a profile they will start off the same and that will include the set of open tabs from the file ''sessionstore.js'' however profiles are independent and so should have there own sessionstore and History once they have been used.
