OpenType, Jenson, handling

OpenType, Jenson, handling

[David Wooten]

Greetings all,

Adam,
Have you had any success in using hanging alignment handling with Adobe 
Jenson Pro? The last reference to this I've found was in your 2003 My 
Way on the subject.

Kind regards,
David

it's indepent of the font,

\usetypescript[serif][hanging][pure]

(see type-exa for other variants)

load your jensen pro definitions (i don't have that font, otherwise it would 
have be part of type-buy.tex) and

\setupalign[hanging]

Actually, the thing David asked about was a weird bug turned up between
FontForge's font conversion, that particular font, and the pdfetex of
that time. I haven't seen anything like that since, especially since
using the --lcdf switch.

In any case, that font works for me now.

texfont --ma --in --lcdf --pre --ve=adobe --co=jenson --va=liga,kern,onum,pnum
texfont --ma --in --lcdf --pre --ve=adobe --co=jenson --
va=liga,kern,smcp,lnum,tnum
