Hi Adam, Yes, the Hoefler text…although not by my choosing ;) The centripetal|/|centriputal "trick" did the trick. Thanks again, David On Mar 20, 2005, at 4:00 PM, Adam Lindsay wrote:

Greetings, hopefully this is a real quickie.
I'm using XeConTeXt, regime UTF, language en, hoefler encoding uc & receiving a barred l for any instance of this:
Hello David,
Although you can use the utf regime with XeConTeXt, you are often better off not using it. (It depends on which
l/
Yeah, this was a thread on the XeTeX list. Apparently it's an Apple- created ligature. I think it shows up with o-slash as well. Hoefler text, right?
workaround 1) use a different font. :P workaround 2) insert something that would interrupt the ligature being formed, like centripital\hbox{}/centrifugal
Which makes it tough to have pairs like centripetal/centrifugal. :)
potential solution 3) use the much more ConTeXt-like code: centripetal|/ |centrifugal.
Hope one of those is of some help...
