LuaTex and em dashes
LuaLaTex is not inserting em dashes unless there is space around the triple dash.
It works fine when using a unicode em dash, or explicitly using the textemdash
macro.
Here is a MWE:
documentclass{article}
begin{document}
begin{enumerate}
item en--dash
item em---dash
item em --- dash space
end{enumerate}
begin{enumerate}
item en–dash unicode
item em—dash unicode
item em — dash space unicode
end{enumerate}
begin{enumerate}
item entextendash{}dash macro
item emtextemdash{}dash macro
item em textemdash{} dash space macro
end{enumerate}
end{document}
Which produces:
Compiled using LuaTeX, Version 1.07.0 (TeX Live 2018)
luatex tex-core punctuation ligatures
