Hyphenation issues with translated languages

We are having issues with poor hyphenation placement for translated languages. I have found this https://support.ptc.com/help/arbortext/r8.1.2.0/en/index.html#page/styler%2Fstyler%2Fhelp27549_help27549_2.html%23 but not sure what it means? Under stylesheet properties there is the APP formatting tab which has a hyphenation section, but there does not seem to be a way to change it per language.

I think you need to have the Language matching for each context (on the Language tab). For example, you might need to check the language attribute and then switch the language accordingly. That should ensure the correct hyphenation algorithm is selected. If you need to override the hyphenation language then that is possible too.
