FB2's and Em-dash
I use BD for making FB2's. Even if I change dashes to em-dashes within BD, after making the book, all the em-dashes have changed back into hyphens. Does anyone know what code or whatever I need to use to change them back into em-dashes after making the book.

Hello Soxendom,
within the fb2-making-dialog there ist a dropdown box on the right, where you can choose the type of dashes: short (which is the default), middle and long. I tried "long" and it worked. I don't think, that you can change it back automatically. You have to search and replace manually to avoid that all hyphens, including the right ones, convert to em-dashes. If you have blank-hyphen-blank instead of blank-emdash-blank it would be easier. Last edited by acanthicus; 10-13-2010 at 02:39 PM. Reason: hoping someone understands what I am writing... |
