RE: [xep-support] TOC leader and page ref wrapping badly

Martin,

You could set letter-spacing="0" on the page-number-citation element:

<fo:block text-align="left" text-align-last="justify">Section title<fo:leader leader-pattern="dots"/><fo:page-number-citation
ref-id="div47132" letter-spacing="0"/></fo:block>

Alternatively/additionally, you could insert a non-breaking space (0xa0) between leader and page-number-citation to force the leader
to keep on the same line as the page number. The leader will be stretched rather than the generated page number. Of course, you will
observe a little space between leader and page number. Inserting a zero-width joiner (0x200d) instead of the non-breaking space
could solve this, but then the 'text-align-last="justify"' is not always honoured (with XEP 3.8). Setting an additional end-indent
on the block save for the last line may improve the result (at least we think so: the last "word" of a title then often wraps as
well), e.g. in the following:

<fo:block text-align-last="justify"
          text-align="left"
          end-indent="12pt"
          last-line-end-indent="-12pt">Section title<fo:leader leader-pattern="dots"/>&#xa0;<fo:page-number-citation
ref-id="div47132" letter-spacing="0"/></fo:block>

Best regards,
