[Z7 Beta] Line breaks in annotation
Hi all,
while Z6 is quite good at handling line breaks in annotations, I've noticed that Z7 is noticeably worse at that (if you're already aware of the problem I apologize for the extra report). There are often case where it pulls together two individual words in a linebreak (but it does not happen always). I've also noticed that there are cases in which it includes the hyphen in annotations where Zotero 6 accurately removed them.

Have a good week!

In this screenshot (https://i.imgur.com/bH8RI88.png), the yellow annotation was done in the most recent beta, the red annotation of the same text was created with Z6. PDF-Source: http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0111-pedocs-205680

Extracted Text:
„Nach diesem Verständnis zielt Kritik nicht nur auf den Nachweis, sondern auch auf die Erzeugung »reflexiver Inakzeptabilität«, also darauf, im Selbstverständnis der Adressaten einen praktischen Widerspruch her(aus)zustellen, der einen Prozess der Selbstreflexion initi- iert, der wiederum die Voraussetzung für eine transformative Praxis ist.”
I've not managed to discover a pattern for why it sometimes works (i.e. with „Inakzeptabilität“) and sometimes doesn't (i.e. with "initi -iert").

The blue highlight (top) is from Zotero 6 on Ubuntu 24.04 and the yellow (bottom) from Zotero 7.0.0-beta.82 on Windows 10:

The hyphen should be kept, but it is removed in both cases.
Note that Zotero 7 now merges together the words from the end of the line and the next line. This seems to be the case for all the papers that I have tested.

The hyphens even disappears from the search results.
In future we'll also try to do a few tricks to improve the hyphenated words issue.
The hyphens problem is less important, but that paper gives a good number of test cases, with hyphens that should be either kept or removed.
