(rows 1, 2, and 5). Does anyone know why this might be the > case? TeX see '--' and variants as a ligature for en and em dashes, and replaces it accordingly. The fix is to have Jade turn them in to -\/- in the .tex file. OpenJade in the ports tree doesn't do this, but the one in the OpenJade CVS repository does. Go to http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/openjade/jade/jade/TeXFO= TBuilder.cxx?rev=3D1.18&content-type=3Dtext/vnd.viewcvs-markup and search for "// break ligatures" to see the code.
