[publican-list] questions on 2.8

[Siyuan Tian]

Hi Jeff,

I solved the hyphenate problem by turnning it off
in /usr/share/publican/xsl/pdf.**xsl according to your instruction.

How can I override it in my brand? I double checked the user guide, which
does not mention this. Or where can I find more information on brand?

I tried again,  2.8 support "build formats=test". I might have made a
mistake.

Thanks for your kind help,

Tian
