\dot & lucida

Hi all,

I use lucida fonts for my documents with

\usetypescriptfile[type-buy]
\loadmapfile[ec-bh-lucida.map]
\usetypescript[lucida][ec]
\setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt]

When I will use \dot in math formula, the result seems to be a 
\prime\prime. It works without lucida... Strange ???
I don't understand the reason of this behavior. I suspect the use of ec, 
am I right ? Anyway, it's strange !

Renaud

Hi all,

My solution to this issue is:
1 - texexec ec-bh-lucida
2 - search the hex code 05 as in math-lbr.tex -> it's a "
3 - search the correct symbol (dot) and the hex code (it is 0A)
4 - replace 05 by 0A (line 390 of math-lbr.tex)

Now, it works for me but I'm not sure that this solution is "correct" ;-)
Your opinion ?

Renaud

PS: I have not checked other symbols but if I will encounter the same 
kind of issue, I will post it...

I'm not sure it is a good enough general solution, but it will work
for the default font set.

If I understand it correctly, the problem is that the [tf] entries in
the math collections refer to a text font, not math font, so the current
text encoding should be taken in consideration.

The old hex 05 assumed the text font was in 8y/texnansi encoding, your
new hex 0A that it is in 8t/ec encoding. Both can be wrong depending on
the current user font settings, I'm afraid/
