Björn Kautler created FOP-2522:
----------------------------------
Summary: Soft hyphens in front of some characters are transformed
to hyphen-minus
Key: FOP-2522
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2522
Project: FOP
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Björn Kautler
If you have a verbatim block like {{<programlisting>}} in DocBook, the DocBook
XSL stylesheets insert many soft hypens (http://decodeunicode.org/u+00AD) into
the content to show where the FO-processor may insert linebreaks. By default
after spaces and non-breakable spaces, but configurable also after arbitrary
other characters.
Unfortunately it seems FOP does not handle the soft hyphens correctly,
depending on the character that follows it. Soft Hyphens in front of some
characters are transformed to hyphen-minus, no matter what
hyphenation-characters is configured and even if the occurence is within a line
and not at line break.
I've observed this behaviour with soft hyphens in front of apostrophe
(http://decodeunicode.org/u+0027), quotation mark
(http://decodeunicode.org/u+0022), hyphen-minus
(http://decodeunicode.org/u+002D) and full stop
(http://decodeunicode.org/u+002E)
