But the hyphenation is by nature somewhat volatile, so whenever we change something we would like to be able to easily recheck the hyphenation. And our book is over 1200 pages, so it would be very helpful to have tools to make the checking more efficient. so, you only want to highlight hyphens?
Yes. Especially hyphens introduced by TeX for line-breaking.
in mkiv it probably takes me a couple of hours to implement such a feature

Unfortunately at this point I believe we are restricted to mkii. However, I have made progress implementing a tool like this in Adobe javascript. The obstacle I am facing now is that the PDF (produced by xdvipdfmx) is not configured to allow Adobe Reader users to manipulate comments; thus my js code to add highlighting throws an exception. If we had an Adobe Acrobat license it probably would not be a problem; but our current reality is that we don't. Does anyone know how to tell xdvipdfmx to enable commenting rights in the PDF it creates? Or how to add these rights afterwards, without Adobe Acrobat? Thanks, Lars
