Hi Paul,
The hyphenate.verbatim feature only affects content in programlisting,
screen, and synopsis, not replaceable.
The other problem is that the hyphenate.verbatim feature inserts soft
hyphen characters, which FOP does not yet support. It just prints hyphens
at each point.
I think you are looking for something more like ulink.hyphenate, which uses
a template named hyphenate-url to insert the character specified by the
ulink.hyphenate parameter after every character specified in the
ulink.hyphenate.chars parameter. Since FOP doesn't support soft hyphens,
you will have to use zero width spaces, which do work in FOP:
<xsl:param name="ulink.hyphenate">​</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="ulink.hyphenate.chars">. ,</xsl:param>
Of course, this doesn't automatically work with replaceable text. You will
need to customize the replaceable template to call hyphenate-url. And it
will affect your printed ulink URLs too, unless you differentiate the
customization.

Subject: [docbook-apps] hyphenate.verbatim.characters format for multiple
characters?
In my PDFs (docbook-xsl v1.72.0 + fop 0.93), <replaceable> elements
containing long strings do not wrap; this is particularly noticeable in
narrow table columns. So I attempted to specify a number of characters
for
the hyphenate.verbatim.characters parameter.
My first question is - does this affect <replaceable> text?
My second question is: each format I try gives an "unexpected token"
error
in fop. I've tried the following formats to specify space, comma and
period
as breaking characters:
<xsl:param name="hyphenate.verbatim.characters" select="',','
','.'"></xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="hyphenate.verbatim.characters" select=",
."></xsl:param>
Could anyone give a working example of setting
hyphenate.verbatim.characters?
Thanks,
P.
