lm bug?

lm bug?

[Yue Wang]

hi
here is a image of 4 pdf file.

a.pdf is compiled using lm fonts under mkii
b.pdf is compiled using lm fonts under mkiv
c.pdf is compiled using cm fonts under mkii
d.pdf is compiled using cm fonts under etex+dvipdfmx

So I think there is some problem with lm otf fonts (or maybe mkiv do
not embed the hinting correctly?

You should try to see if there are noticeable differences when:

* printing
* viewing in acrobat reader
* veiwing ghostscript
* compared to xetex + xdvipdfmx

because it wouldn't surprise me if this was a problem in the freetype
engine in Xorg.

Best wishes,
Taco

xetex+dvipdfmx outputs are also ugly in poppler based viewer.
