italic corrrection?

italic corrrection?

[Meer, H. van der]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 414 bytes --]

I cannot see the italic correction. Neither in the default not, nor in lucidaot.

An explicit \/ (plain TeX material!) makes no difference.
Addition of \setupitaliccorrection[always] also did not make a difference.

What am I doing wrong?

Hans van der Meer


% italic correction
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
%\setupbodyfont[lucidaot]
\starttext
{\it n}:{\it n}\crlf
{\it n\/}:{\it n}\crlf
\stoptext

Add \definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes] before \setupbodyfont.

Thanks but allthough this has an effect on the default modern, it does not made a difference for lucidaot.
Is the TUG delivered lucidaot deficient with respect to the italic correction?
It is hard to believe!
I have two examples added, both modern and lucidaot to show the (tiny) difference.

I looked it up in the sources and found it in typo-itc.mkiv.
From there I deduced when should have something akin to:
\definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes,notextitalics=yes] what are notextitalics?
\setupitaliccorrection[global] (and other values)
Quite involved for a font layman, like me.

Hans van der Meer

Example was
% italic correction
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes,notextitalics=yes]
\setupitaliccorrection[global]
\setupbodyfont[modern,24pt] % or with lucidaot
\starttext
{\it n}:{\it n}\crlf
{\it n\/}:{\it n}\crlf
\stoptext

I goes there is no correction for the “n” but try this example with/without the “itlc” feature and you can see a difference.

\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\definefontfeature[default][default][itlc=yes]
\setupbodyfont[lucidaot]
\starttext
fl f\/l {\it fl f\/l}
\stoptext

Thanks,
I see the difference appearing in lucidaot with your example.
A pity italic correction isn't available for the n (and some others, I fear). It makes {\it n}x{\it n} for n multiplied by n harder in the text, as I find $n\times n$ within running text to alien looking. That makes {\it n}\,x{\it n} perhaps the best solution.
