I fixed this in our code. Our bug was to assume that 0-width characters 
were bugs in the Java fonts and therefore, we displayed them as little 
rectangles. Now, thanks to your excellent report, we have finally 
understood that these characters are highly useful and that Java renders 
them properly.

You'll find the bug fix in XXE v4 (released next week),"

Does this mean that XXE v4 will have the CSS font-family restrictions removed?  
These restrictions are in listed the CSS documentation as
---

font-family is expected to contain serif, sans-serif or monospace. 
Example: "|font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;|".

However a few well-know font families are mapped to the corresponding 
generic font families. Example: "|font-family: verdana;|" is understood 
to be sans-serif.

All other cases will cause the serif font family to be used. Example: 
"|font-family: 'Nimbus Sans';|".

That would be wonderful if so.
