Hi,

I've been having some trouble with ConTeXt not typesetting math correctly when using the Pagella font (I do not know if the same issue occurs with other fonts as I haven't tested them).

If I compile with LMTX, the spacing between letters becomes very small so that when I type "|f|", for example, the second "|" intersects the f and looks rather ugly. However, compiling with the --luatex switch fixes these issues and the math looks nice again.

Can anybody else replicate this issue, and does anybody know why it is happening?

This the code I used to test:

\setupbodyfont[pagella]

\starttext
\startformula
|f| = \sqrt{\int_0^1 |f(t)|^2 \text{d}t}
\stopformula
\stoptext

Jack
