1) Do you know how to set up the sentence breaks in order to break syllables Spanish style¿ [It seems to be configured for EN breaks?

2) Certain headers seem to be also fixed and cannot be translated just like that. Do you know where to go to able to change said headers?

Thx for any suggestion.

The language setting is part of the paragraph format - Ctrl-M.

If you can't change the headers they are probably defined as variables. Some links to get you started:

If you are translating straight in FM (are you really?) in the menu line Select 'View' -> Master pages/Reference pages. Most likely you will see what you neede to translate there.

Need a bit of help with changing a few text lines Mar 30, 2005

I tried reference/master, but that´s not the answer...
I opened the Paragraph Designer and could change things such as Section, example etc (Numbering) in the left column, but I don´t know how to change a few text lines right under the Title (heading 0). I think it´s text written inside a cell. (not a table!)
