Subject: xits font: some spacing and scaling problems
Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2012 16:58:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <F1E3B961-9148-41C3-9B33-674182F06047@imt.uni-luebeck.de> (raw)

Hi there,

Not quite sure if this is the right place. I wanted to send this directly to Khaled Hosny, but then I thought it might be good to have some additional opinion on some of these issues (I am not quite sure if some of this is intended behaviour).

I have collected some examples for which I think there are some scaling and spacing problems in xits.

Also, small caps are not supported. Is this intended?!

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Andreas


%%%%%%%%%%%% MINIMAL EXAMPLE %%%%%%%%%%%% 
\setupbodyfont[xits,11pt]

\starttext
$\diamond$ % too small?!

$\square$ % OK?!

$\blacktriangleright$ % too big?!

$\blacktriangleleft$ % too big?!

$\blacktriangle$ % too big?!

$\blacktriangledown$ % too big?!

{\sc Word} % not supported ?!

$\tilde{W}^i$ $W^i$ % using a superscript in case
                    % an accent is used results in 
                    % a too small distance between letter
                    % and superscript 

$f^i$ % distance too small (seems to be just the case for $f$, see e.g. $h^i$ $t^i$)
\stoptext
