Subject: base- vs. node-kerning

Message-ID: <13007818-2899-43F3-B64F-10A9941A6380@uni-koblenz.de> (raw)

Hello,

the kerning with mode=node seems not to work as desired, the gaps  
after the kerned character are to big. Here is a test file:


\setupcolors[state=start]

\definefontfeature[base][mode=base,kern=yes]
\definefontfeature[node][mode=node,kern=yes]

\definefont[MinBase][name:minionpro-regular*base]
\definefont[MinNode][name:minionpro-regular*node]

% \definefont[MinBase][Serif*base]
% \definefont[MinNode][Serif*node]

\starttext

\startbuffer[Kerning]
   \startlines
     Wer
     Tat
     Ver
     VAI
   \stoplines
\stopbuffer

\startTEXpage
   \startoverlay
     {\hbox to 1cm {\vbox{\MinBase\darkred{\getbuffer[Kerning]}}}}
     {\hbox to 1cm {\vbox{\MinNode        {\getbuffer[Kerning]}}}}
   \stopoverlay
\stopTEXpage

\stoptext


Greetings
	Andreas
