Thanks for all your replies and suggestions. I decided that there was no
easy solution. It must be the fact that some of the compound words have
more than 64 characters that is causing the hyphenation to fail. I
decided to hyphenate it manually and came up with something passable. I
hope I don't run into too many more passages like this.
Best
