Publisher declines to hyphenate words many times in text boxes in my project, leaving a large space at the end of the line. (Sometimes, for unknown reasons, it does hyphenate.) I have the hyphenation zone set at .25, and the "Automatically hyphenate" box checked.

If I go to a place where this is occurring, and begin typing the word at the end of the line where it belongs, it often seems to work ok. So then I just delete the copy of the word from the line below (where Publisher originally put it). However, sometimes this does not work--and I'd rather not have to fuss with it.

Any ideas what my problem is? (I am using Publisher 2010 for Windows.)
