[Libreoffice-qa] Writer: Use of different items for Formatting Marks

[Jochen]

Hi Regina,

do you have an overview, if in LO the terms "NO-BREAK SPACE", "NO-BREAK 
SPACE" and "SOFT HYPHEN" are used consistently?

Exits a QA-document (e.g. in Wiki) where this is written/noted?

History repeats itself.

Regards

Jochen
