This depends on how quick you can convert a TeX hyphenation file. TeX/LaTeX supports many languages, as cou can see here <ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/language/>. Not all languages have this many pattern as the german (about 5000). At this time in the package is no support for unicode. This will be a todo in the future. > By the way: When trying out the German hyphenation I noticed that it > correctly doesn't support "Umlaute"?

Then, i have to correct the quickform rule, about 'lettersonly'. Otherwise can you give me an exmaple, what you tried. grettings Stefan
