PM25328: PDF/Word output misses a space in ?page number of Total page numbers? section in footer.

Rational Publishing Engine 1.1.2.2

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When we do an export using the light RPE in DOORS 9.3 (File ?
  Export ? Rational Publishing Engine ? PDF), the PDF output
  misses a space in ?page number of Total page numbers? section in
  footer. The issue is seen only if the total number of pages of
  the output document exceeds 10 and it is seen in both book and
  table layout. Attached is the screenshot.
  
  I could reproduce this with standalone RPE 1.1.1.2 and with
  templates (?book.dta? and ?table.dta?) in the location
  ?C:\Program
  Files\IBM\Rational\DOORS\9.3\lib\dxl\standard\export\RPE_light\s
  ource\DOORS\examples?.
  
  To workaround this issue I have edited the templates with an
  extra space before the ?Total Pages Number? field. This looks
  good from the 10th page onwards but in turn added an extra space
  before the ?Total Pages Number? field in pages 1-9.
  

Local fix

  rendered in the PDF output.
