less sure why - is not being used, unless you're right and its not

The standard process is to run the XSLT standalone (instead of
processing straight into PDF), examine the result and check whether
the ‐ indeed is replaced with a U+002D. If so, it's indeed
most likely a font issue, otherwise, something else screwed up,
and I'd check with an identity transformation whether it's the
XSLT or the parser (or the DTD).
If it's a font issue, edit the XSLT result so that the ‐
is surrounded by an <fo:wrapper font-family="Arial"> or some
other default PDF font which is known to have a glyph for the
dash. The next step would be processor specific.
