Hyphenation
- “Exlude from hyphenation” character formatting: blog post (László Németh) tdf#106733
▸ ▸ ▸ is the first and ODF-compliant solution to disable the hyphenation of selected words in hyphenated paragraphs without losing spell checking and locale-dependent text layout.
Disabled hyphenation of the word “Ökobio” in paragraph 2 and 3. Using the old workaround in paragraph 2 (modifying language of the word to [None]) resulted lost text layout and spell checking. With the new “Exclude from hyphenation” character formatting in paragraph 3, the word “Ökobio” keeps spell checking and text layout: “Ö” (O with umlaut) gets wide dots only in German because of locale-dependent font features of Linux Libertine (Display G)

Windows 7 and 8/8.1 are now deprecated platforms. The Extended Security Updates program on Windows Embedded POSReady 7 expires on October 8, 2024. Mainstream support for the Embedded Standard edition of Windows 8 ended on July 10, 2018, and extended support ended on July 11, 2023.
Starting with LibreOffice 25.2, there will be no guarantee that LibreOffice will work on Windows 7 or 8/8.1. Support will not be intentionally removed at this point and fixes to problems exclusively affecting these platforms will still be accepted.
