Howdy:

The chapter 7 text presents an issue during PDF display, on page 153  
of the pdf (page 135 in the text). This is in the "externals  
definition" section. The 4th paragraph looks like this (copying and  
pasting from the PDF):

The convenience of the svn:externals property is that once it is set  
on a versioned directory, everyone who
checks out a working copy with that directory also gets the benefit  
of the externals definition. In other words, once
one person has made the effort to define those nested working copy  
checkouts, no one else has to Subver-
bother—sion will, upon checkout of the original working copy, also  
checkout the external working copies.

Note the clause in the last sentence:

no one else has to Subver-
bother—sion will

The XML looks correct - the word "Subversion" isn't split in the  
actual text:

   <para>The convenience of the <literal>svn:externals</literal>
       property is that once it is set on a versioned directory,
       everyone who checks out a working copy with that directory also
       gets the benefit of the externals definition.  In other words,
       once one person has made the effort to define those nested
       working copy checkouts, no one else has to
       bother—Subversion will, upon checkout of the original
       working copy, also checkout the external working copies.</para>


This occurs in both Preview.app and Acrobat Reader 7.0 on Mac OS/X  
10.4. Haven't tried it on windows or linux.

Best,
    Pete Clark
