Compare the size of the primes with xits, cambria and modern, only the later is correct.
Hi Khaled, Hi Hans,
Thank you so much to bith of you and all other people involved in the project for giving us so rapidly the ability to use stix, and xits, fonts. I tried for a week or so both stix and xits fonts on many of the documents I have in ConTeXt. I can say that as far as simple text is concerned everything works like a charm. However, regarding stix and xits there are some issues with math mode:
• With stix fonts, the integral sign doesn't scale up correctly, and the placement and maybe the sizes of the indices and derivative signs are incorrect.
If they did, then there wouldn't be any reason for xits to exits :)
• With xits fonts, the integral sign is correct but the placement of the indices and exponents are not always correct (see the example below). Also for some reasons the greek letters are not anymore italicized.
I run your test and the lower case Greek is italic. The *script placement on the text integral is wrong, looks like the italic correction is either ignored or applied incorrectly.
I have also a question regarding the use of calligraphic script style, like the font rsfs, which are contained in xits and stix: how can one use them?
