Than you for explanation! But, is it possible to activate kerning for
MinionPro?
And what about the following example?
\startbuffer[KernTest]
\startlines
Tänze,
Tanze,
Väter,
Vater,
\stoplines
\stopbuffer
The kerned „Väter“ can't be right (with MinionPro).
Greetings,
Andreas

Here the blue (= base mode) actually looks correct, but that just means
that mkiv needs a patch: the base kerns are also generated by the mkiv
font loader, after all. It probably got confused by the kerning classes.
I expect that it actually did work earlier (pre 0.31), and that what you
see now is just a regression. But it is better for me to wait for Hans'
comment than to dive into the code and maybe spend hours on a problem
that would take him 10 seconds.
Best wishes,
Taco

i uploaded a beta that hopefully fixes it
btw, you can say:
\enabletrackers[otf.kerns]
and see what is injected between glyphs
thanks for the test files

Hello,
I've a curious problem: With Palatino or Latin Modern kerning seems to work as intended, but what's the matter with Minion (example below)?
