[xep-support] XEP-generated PDFs and "save as RTF"

[Louis Amdur]

Thanks for the response, Alexei. When I set the ENABLE-ACCESSIBILITY 
option to true, I can indeed save as RTF but the resulting documents have 
no space between the words. The PDFs have spaces between words but (I 
haven't looked at the PS itself yet) but they are not selectable using the 
Acrobat select tool, so I don't know exactly what type of intra-word 
spaces are being produced by XEP. Note:This is only an issue with the 
accessibility option set: PDFs produced without it set contain proper 
spaces.

Lou

Hello Louis,

The workaround is simple - just use accessible PDFs.
You can create an accessible PDF document (with XEP 4.3 or higher) using
ENABLE_ACCESSIBILITY option.
