[XeTeX] Some accent problems

[Meho R.]

Thanks, but that is a little inconvenient solution. 

A little update: it seems that the problem is somewhere in texlive-xetex package for Hardy (Hardy repo: texlive-xetex 2007.dfsg.1-2). I downloaded version 2007.dfsg.1-3 from Debian Sid and problem dissapeared. It seems that Hardy repo needs an update indeed. Still have no idea where the problem lies. I hope this info will be useful for others if having same problem.

Meho,

Try this:

\begin{document}
Uj\={u}nul{-}eser
\end{document}

Regards,

I recently upgraded my Ubuntu system to Hardy (64bit) and installed TeXLive from Hardy repo. I also updated xltxtra package (the one that Will posted link a while ago) because the old one reports error when try to use no-sscript option. I noticed that if I use "\=" commands and in the word after that in some place have "-" that I got all characters between the two repeated twice. E.g.. if I type "Uj\=unul-eser" I got in the output: "Ujûnul-nul-eser" instead "Ujûnul-eser". Here is a sample file:

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{scrbook}
\usepackage[cm-default]{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage[no-sscript]{xltxtra}
\defaultfontfeatures{Scale=MatchLowercase,Mapping=tex-text}
\setmainfont{URW Palladio L}

\begin{document}
Uj\=unul-eser
\end{document}

It happens with all fonts, otf, ttf... The plain LaTeX behaviours normally.
