Subject: [xep-support] negative letter spacing with right justified text

 


I have a problem trying to using negative letter-spacing with right
justified text.  It appears as though the starting position of text is
calculated before any letter-spacing is applied.  The net result is that
instead of the text bumped up tight to the right, it appears to be padded a
distance from the right, an amount equal to the space removed between the
characters in the word/phrase. 

I am using XEP version 4.12. 

<fo:block text-align="right"> 
        <fo:inline letter-spacing="-1pt">TEXT</fo:inline> 
</fo:block> 

Using the example above, the word "TEXT" will appear 3 points left of the
right margin. I assume that this is a bug in XEP and not designed behavior. 

Thanks, 

Daniel Boughton
