--- Comment #12 from Khaled Hosny <[email protected]> ---
This is an old bug that got exposed by recent changes in the underlying layout
code.

Basically what is happening is that when we are exporting to tagged PDF, U+00AD
(soft hyphen) is used as hyphen character (probably to allow for text re-flow)
but this is wrong since U+00AD is a control character and should not have any
visible output as it sole purpose it to indicate possible hyphenation point.
Our new (more Unicode complaint) layout engine strips such control character
and replaces them with a zero width space, the old engine did not do this and
it worked to some degree (as long as the font has a visible glyph in that
position, which most fonts do, but there is no requirement to do that).

I need to find what is the proper way to tag and automatically inserted hyphen
in tagged PDF and implement that, so I appreciative if any one can research
this.
