InDihyph is based on the same leading hyphenation algorithms from the Dieckmann Company that have already been integrated into our CS and CS2 products. The combination of program logic and tables makes InDihyph a unique hyphenator. The logic here is based on the respective language's grammatical rules supplemented by the real highlight: the algorithms developed by Dieckmann. The program tables intervene to regulate here when these no longer suffice, for example with compound words, special terms, foreign words, and neologisms. Of course, InDihyph recognizes all of the words' forms and endings and hyphenates accordingly.
A single hyphenation rule can cover entire word groups with InDihyph. An example would be covering all of formula 1 terms with a single rule. This is only possible with InDesign's own hyphenation by appending every single word.
InDihyph recognizes not just the "hyphenation point", but graduates from "excellent hyphenation point" to "acceptable hyphenation point." This leads to unesthetic or even distorting hyphenations being avoided as far as possible. Prominent examples are "Urin-stinkt," "Bierde-ckel," or "Anal-phabet." InDihyph avoids these hyphenations with the worst quality and they are thus used by InCopy/InDesign only in an "emergency" such as with very narrow columns. InDihyph integrates its own paragraph composer as the only hyphenation for Adobe InDesign and InCopy beginning with CS3. A paragraph's wrap can now be specifically adjusted and guided based on hyphenation qualities. This results in a significantly improved print. The best hyphenation quality can be employed with wide columns; with narrow columns, an acceptable hyphenation quality can now be used. Hyphenation qualities themselves can be assigned by paragraph palette or paragraph format. InDihyph Core Engine, which may be shared without restrictions, ensures that the paragraph composer's information and the hyphenation qualities are completely retained throughout the entire editorial workflow even without installed InDihyph hyphenation.
The Ghost function is specially designed for agencies, suppliers and freelancers. Create or edit High-quality documents with InDihyph. When you open a document, InDihyph noted with which hyphenation was previously used to create or edit the document. The document can now be changed to the InDihyph hyphenation to work with precise hyphenation points. If the document will be saved, the InDihyph hyphenation engine "disappears" from the document and the original hyphenation engine will be restored. This allows the end user to open the document without any warning about a missing hyphenation engine.

Private hyphenation rules can be defined for the first time in conjunction with the user dictionaries. The "<*licher>" rule for example prevents the "li-cher" word ending from being hyphenated. For vowels and consonants, placeholders (period and comma) can also be used, e.g., Zei-t.n = Zei-tung or Zei-ten. You can use a comma with consonants, e.g., lo-,en = lo-ben or lo-ten
InDihyph reports hyphenation-point quality in all eligible languages as
excellent to acceptable. Examples:
Cross~ex~~~~~am~~~ine, Eye~wit~~~ness, Hand~writ~~~ing. One tilde: very good
hyphenation; three tildas: still acceptable hyphenation. Hyphenations can also be
specified by numbers 1 to 5 instead of by tildas.
The private paragraph composer can specifically control individual paragraphs' appearance. This confers a quality to your documents that was never there before.
Hyphenation-quality assignment integrates into the paragraph palette and the paragraph formats. These are extended with hyphenation quality using InDihyph.
