Thank you for your suggestion but in the following example the operational symbol is too big as well as the number 1. \mapfontsize[modern][script] [.4] \mapfontsize[modern][scriptscript][.2] \setupbodyfont[modern,12pt] \startTEXpage[offset=1DK] \m{z_{n+1}} \stopTEXpage Le ven. 29 déc. 2023 à 14:47, Mikael Sundqvist a écrit :

Hi, To type my lessons or other, I use the Modern font in 12 pt or 11 pt. I

find that the subscript notations are a little too big : how can I improve this ?

...

Thanks Fabrice

\m{ \forall n \in N, z_{n+1}=\frac{i}{3}z_n}

you could try something like (here with too small numbers only to show...)

\mapfontsize[modern][script] [.4] \mapfontsize[modern][scriptscript][.2]

\setupbodyfont[modern,10pt]

\startTEXpage[offset=1DK] \m{3^{2^3}} \stopTEXpage

I hope it helps.

In fact, I get the same expected result with the context from TeXLive (2023). /Mikael On Fri, Dec 29, 2023 at 4:56 PM Mikael Sundqvist wrote:

Strange, here it looks OK. Maybe something that will be solved when there is an update then.

Great, all is good then. (Or?) /Mikael On Fri, Dec 29, 2023 at 5:07 PM Fabrice Couvreur < fabrice1.couvreur@gmail.com> wrote:

Perhaps the size should be even smaller because I personally find it still a little large.

But that would imply different scaling for different content.

PS : In a thread, I thought I read that you had written a document on the use of mathematics with ConTeXt, true or false?

It is in the writing, but it takes some time (working on it tonight). I hope to have it out in some form in a not too distant future. /Mikael
