Hi there,

In my latex document i've set \hyphenpenalty=15000 and \pretolerance=10000 to remove word hyphenation and make text bounds even.

But I can't disable this effect for section/subsection headers. All headers looks badly due to big spaces between words (image).

Are there any solution to disable \hyphenpenalty=15000 and \pretolerance=10000 effect for headers?

Thank you!
