[XeTeX] Some problems with hyphenation and -recorder options

[Gilles Pérez-Lambert]

Hello,

In xetex 0.86 and 0.88 (at least), there's some problem with
hyphenation. See the tex document attached. I put a pdf file on my
idisk public folder just in case it doesn't show in your setup
(Finder, 'Go to iDisk public folder of another member' [or something
like this...], my member name is gpl).

The problems with hyphenation are:
- double hyphen at the end of the line if an hyphen is already there in a word.
- or one hyphen at the end and the other at the beginning of the next line.
- last one: a compound word can have its elements hyphenated when it
should not (better seen in the pdf file).

The point with the -recorder option is that it doesn't record the
fonts used (.otf or AAT ones, the real font path with font names):
would it be possible for xdv2pdf to add some info at the end of this
file when converting?


Thank you very much for your time,

gpl

PS: any chance to have character protuding or even simply hanging
punctuation? :-)
