I suppose that Luigi is already testing things, and will report on it in detail, but here's a quick and dirty check on what's in there: \starttypescript [math] [stix] [name] \definefontsynonym[MathRoman][file:stixgeneral.otf] [features=math] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [stix] [name] % why 'italic' infull and 'bol' without 'd'? \definefontsynonym[Serif] [file:stixgeneral.otf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [file:stixgeneralbol.otf] [features=defaulth] \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [file:stixgeneralitalic.otf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic][file:stixgeneralbolita.otf] [features=default] \stoptypescript \starttypescript[stix] \definetypeface [stix] [rm] [serif] [stix] [default] \definetypeface [stix] [mm] [math] [stix] [default] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[stix] \setupbodyfont[stix] \usemodule[fnt-25] \startbuffer[mathtest] \begingroup\mm\mr\showmathfontcharacters\endgroup \stopbuffer Well, sort of as expected ... no opentype math font at all ... I wonder what took 'm so long ... okay, luatex/mkiv could be wrong and is no reference and could well be unable to handle an opentype math font but the only reference to math in the font is to the copyright holders, i.e. no math table, so i wonder what programs like msword can do with it. Okay, I could make a virtual font but gimme a reason. So, it looks like Khaled has to do his magic and make a proper 'derived work' unless we want to wait till 1.1 which will show up end 2010. The good news is that there are lots of glyphs. Kerns indeed but only a liga feature (interesting with a NLD variant).
