Hi,
While the space after the inlined subscripts does look excessive, it faithfully matches the font's MATH table: the integrals in cambria math have a massive italic correction even though they fit in their bounding boxes quite nicely.
Ok, Ulrik sent me a Word screenshot, and it turns out that we are (apparently) supposed to ignore the italic correction when a symbol is used in 'mathematical contexts' as it is here (as opposed to 'textual contexts', both of which terms are yet-to-be-defined). Finding a proper solution to this problem will not be easy. TeX82 solves the spacing problems by having math fonts (recognisable by the lack of a space-width font dimension) as well as text fonts (that do have a space-width dimension), but that split does not exist in OpenType Math (as there is only one font). Best wishes, Taco
