Very sorry... my mail client chopped the lines in my example poorly, it doesn't make any sense how it reads below. In my hyphenation problem example, the output actually breaks the word "comfortable" across two lines (as you would expect when a word gets hyphenated) - the problem is, however, that I can't turn off the auto-hyphenation.
