Subject: Incorrect rendering of * with UTF math fonts
Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:52:22 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.02.1202221447320.732@ybpnyubfg.ybpnyqbznva> (raw)
Hi,
Using * in superscripts gives wrong glyph size and spacing.
For example, with LM math everyhing looks fine:
\starttext
$x^*$ vs $x^{\ast}$
\stoptext
With Cambria, the result is OK (but you can still see the differences in
the spacing of * in x^*)
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmathfont[Cambria]
\starttext
$x^*$ vs $x^{\ast}$
\stoptext
With Neo Euler, $x^*$ look really bad.
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmathfont[Cambria]
\starttext
$x^*$ vs $x^{\ast}$
\stoptext
I cannot figure out why this is happening. It definitely looks like a bug
at the context end rather than a bug with the fonts.
Aditya
