Hello Simon and All, I noticed that there was a series of characters in one of my texts that was included inside the FO (space - space). I have removed the - and retyped it. Possibly it has been copied from a word document and it was somehow different.
By doing this the problem disappeared. I was able to find the same pattern in other many places and I thought that this was not a good solution. So I tried to check the source code. I do not do anything special. Basically I print out the text mentioned previously (XSLT): <xsl:value-of select="$title"/> I agree that this could have many side-effects but up to now I haven't seen anything bad at the generated PDFs. What could go wrong? For example missing characters or overlapping text?

That is a quick hack, and it might well have any side effects. Can you tell us your use case: Why do you want to process fo files with a soft hyphen after a white space or at the start of a block? I will try to find out how the factor can be -1; it should not.
