Placing of integral limits

Placing of integral limits

[Mathias Schickel]

Dear list,

I think that the placement of the indices of integrals has some issues, at least in some fonts. If you try

\setupbodyfont[cambria]
%
\starttext
%
\startformula
	%
	\int\nolimits_a^b f
	%
\stopformula
%
\stoptext

or if you replace Cambria by Stix Two using \setupbodyfont[stixtwo], you will notice that the index a is placed a little too far away form the integral sign. The reference is the „exponent“ b and the Word output. I think the Word output should be the reference here because the font design of Cambria is done by Microsoft and Word supports the font as intended. Apart form that you see the very same effect using Latin Modern and this font should look similar to Computer Modern in LaTeX.

Best regards
Mathias
