- List-id: <docbook-apps.lists.oasis-open.org>
In an <article lang="fr"> document, I correctly get hyphenations for
all words, except if they are preceded from an article with an
apostrophe (eg. "l'administration"). Is this a known problem ? Has
this been fixed in jadetex 3.11 ?
I tried as a workaround to insert some TeX stuff after the apostrophe,
in the hope that it would help TeX to recognize the word as such, but
the best subst I found that would work was s/'/'\\ /, which gives
wrong spacing. I could not find a zero-width space to put there (the
"\," thin space did not help at all with the original problem).
Anyone faced this problem already ?
