Hello Jim,
JQ> Dear All,

You can insert Unicode soft hyphen ­ before/after the slash in
order to make XEP break the word at this positions then hyphenation is
turned on.

Are you sure that you have turned hyphenation on? It is off by
default. With hyphenation turned on XEP will try to break long words
if possible, it uses "text squeezing" technic as a fallback if there
was no appropriate hyphenation rule found or if the word just slightly
longer then available space.
JQ> Thanks so much
Best regards,
