Is there a way to prevent hyphens from appearing in Outlook email messages?

I have encountered an issue while developing an email template. When viewed in Outlook emails, the words break into two lines with hyphens. I have attempted various CSS properties on the 'td' tag, but to no avail.

Is there no way to control this at all?

  <tr>
     <td align="center" 
         style="text-transform: initial;
         letter-spacing: 0;
         font-size:40px;
         line-height: 48px;
         font-weight: 700;
         -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
         -ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;
         mso-table-lspace: 0pt;
         mso-table-rspace: 0pt;
         word-break: break-word;
         -webkit-hyphens: none;
         -moz-hyphens: none;
         hyphens: none;
         border-collapse: collapse;">
        <div>Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.
        </div>
     </td>
  </tr>
  
  <!--This is just a spacer-->
  <tr>
     <td style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; -ms-text-size-adjust: 100%; mso-table-lspace: 0pt; mso-table-rspace: 0pt; word-break: break-word; -webkit-hyphens: none; -moz-hyphens: none; hyphens: none; border-collapse: collapse; line-height:20px; font-size:20px" height="20px">&nbsp;
     </td>
  </tr>

  <tr>
     <td align="center" 
         style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;
         -ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;
         mso-table-lspace: 0pt;

Answer №1

Include the CSS attribute mso-hyphenate: none; in your styles to resolve the issue with hyphenation.

Answer №2

I came across a modifier in a particular source that included the following: w:AutoHyphenation I decided to remove it from the context.

Answer №3

I have found success using the following CSS code snippet in my email templates:

      * {
        word-break: keep-all;
        -moz-hyphens: none;
        -ms-hyphens: none;
        -webkit-hyphens: none;
        hyphens: none;
      }

Answer №4

According to W3schools: when it comes to hyphens in CSS:

Words will not be separated at line breaks, even if there are potential break points within the words. Line wrapping will only occur at spaces.

To prevent hyphenation, you can define a class called no-hyphens and apply it like this:

.no-hyphens {
    hyphens: none;
}
