Re: [docbook-apps] how put narrow non-breaking spaces before punctuation marks

Thanks!

Do you know whether I can get a narrower one ?

The *narrow* non-breaking space (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/202f/index.htm) seems not to work with docbook5.

Hello,

I don't know if oXygen provides a shortcut, but in DocBook 5 you have to
insert the unicode character for non breaking space, that is &#160; in
the XML code.

HTH,

Camille.
