Shows how to register a hyphenation dictionary.

# A hyphenation dictionary contains a list of strings that define hyphenation rules for the dictionary's language.
# When a document contains lines of text in which a word could be split up and continued on the next line,
# hyphenation will look through the dictionary's list of strings for that word's substrings.
# If the dictionary contains a substring, then hyphenation will split the word across two lines
# by the substring and add a hyphen to the first half.
# Register a dictionary file from the local file system to the "de-CH" locale.
aw.Hyphenation.register_dictionary('de-CH', MY_DIR + 'hyph_de_CH.dic')
self.assertTrue(aw.Hyphenation.is_dictionary_registered('de-CH'))
# Open a document containing text with a locale matching that of our dictionary,
# and save it to a fixed-page save format. The text in that document will be hyphenated.
doc = aw.Document(MY_DIR + 'German text.docx')
self.assertTrue(all((node for node in doc.first_section.body.first_paragraph.runs if node.as_run().font.locale_id == 2055)))
doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Hyphenation.dictionary.registered.pdf')
# Re-load the document after un-registering the dictionary,
# and save it to another PDF, which will not have hyphenated text.
aw.Hyphenation.unregister_dictionary('de-CH')
self.assertFalse(aw.Hyphenation.is_dictionary_registered('de-CH'))
doc = aw.Document(MY_DIR + 'German text.docx')
doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'Hyphenation.dictionary.unregistered.pdf')
