As I know, TeX 3.0 has a bit different hyphenation scheme from TeX 2.xx. I guess he should make sure if he has the correct version of plain.tex and hyphen.tex. That is, he should check \lefthyphenmin and \righthyphenmin. Or he may try the following, which is supplied by emTeX. % % 3.tex % % Some definitions for using pre-3.0 formats with TeX 3.0 % \errorcontextlines=5 \lefthyphenmin=2 \righthyphenmin=3 % disallow x- or -xx breaks Young (young@emx.utexas.edu) The Univ. of Texas at Austin.
