— is a standard character entity, long defined in DocBook: $ grep -wi mdash /usr/share/xml/docbook/schema/dtd/4.4/ent/* /usr/share/xml/docbook/schema/dtd/4.4/ent/ISOpub.ent:<!ENTITY mdash "—"> <!-- EM DASH --> See also: http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/docbook.html http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/ref-charents.html http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/iso-pub.html http://www.w3.org/2003/entities/iso8879doc/isopub.html Same goes for é etc. Yet dblatex seems to be unable to interpret those standard entities: dblatex -b pdftex file.xml /tmp/file.xml:36: parser error : Entity 'mdash' not defined Is there a way to be able to use them? It's not always easy or convenient to work in UTF-8; even Latin1 does not have some useful character entities (—), and the Unicode numbers (—) are not very intuitive... -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages dblatex depends on: ii docbook-xml 4.4-5 standard XML documentation system, ii file 4.17-4 Determines file type using "magic" ii gs-esp [gs-pdfencrypt] 8.15.3.dfsg.1-1 The Ghostscript PostScript interpr ii gs-gpl [gs-pdfencrypt] 8.54.dfsg.1-5 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript int ii locales 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii tetex-extra 3.0.dfsg.3-1 Additional TeX input files of teTe ii texlive-latex-extra 2005.dfsg.2-2 TeX Live: LaTeX supplementary pack ii texlive-latex-recommende 2005.dfsg.2-3 TeX Live: LaTeX recommended packag ii xsltproc 1.1.18-1 XSLT command line processor dblatex recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
