Hi,

please consider this:

\starttext
\math{flow_1}
\stoptext

When compiled with MkIV, space between "f" and "l" is quite big and doesn't
look very good. Is it a bug?

Definitely looks like a bug in italic correction. In principle, the spacing with virtual fonts (mkiv) should be the same as type 1 fonts (mkii).

Thanks for clarification.
 

But I agree with Severin that you should not be using \math{flow_1} to represent the first flow. I hope that this example was for illustrating the spacing bug.

Do you suggest I follow Severin's solution?
