[cl-typesetting-devel] Paragraph Justification

[Dmitriy Ivanov]

Hello Denis,

| Is it possible to specify horizontal and maybe vertical non-breaking
| space somehow? I want to try using vertical non-breaking space to try
| and deal with "widows" and "orphans", and horizontal one to fix the
| problem I have when printing superscript footnote references
| separated by a space from the preceding word -- they may get moved to
| the next line. (Btw is there any progress on "printing footnotes on
| the page they belong" problem?)

For horizontal non-breaking space, use the raw nbsp character, e.g. on LispWorks:
    (char-code #\No-Break-Space) => 160

The corresponding "space" glyph is mentioned at least in WinAnsiEncoding and
Win1251Encoding.
