Subject: bad kerning with Garamond
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2012 09:26:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87txx85fpl.fsf@micropit.couberia.bzh> (raw)

Hi,

I've copied the files GARA.TTF, GARABD.TTF and GARAIT.TTF (Monotype
Garamond) to the fonts directory and then regenerated the database.

This is my test-file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[garamond]
\starttext
\input tufte
\it
\input tufte
\bf
\input tufte
\stoptext
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The output is here: http://pmrb.free.fr/tmp/test.pdf and it's very ugly.

How could I get better results please?

TIA for any help!
-- 
           Peter
