Hraban's suggestion works really well. I setup hyphenation rules for the underfull boxes of Russian names and reduced the \tolerance to 600. I'm now down to about 20 underfull boxes which to my eyes look fine. Thanks again Hraban Best Wishes Keith On 28/07/2023 19:20, Keith McKay wrote:

Hi Keith, since both cases are caused by names with accents, did you try to add hyphenation exceptions for those? Such cases are probably not covered by English hyphentation rules.
