Hyphenation of "Comparison"

Post by ltxsun »

I want to use Times in my document, so I set these in my preamble:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{ptm}
But I found that in the same document, the word ``comparison'' can be hyphenated as either compar-ison, or, compari-son.

Is this right?

That's correct, according to this online dictionary.

Note that \usepackage{times} can also be used to change the content font to Times.
