Than you for explanation! But, is it possible to activate kerning for
MinionPro?
And what about the following example?
\startbuffer[KernTest]
\startlines
Tänze,
Tanze,
Väter,
Vater,
\stoplines
\stopbuffer
The kerned „Väter“ can't be right (with MinionPro).
Here the blue (= base mode) actually looks correct, but that just means
that mkiv needs a patch: the base kerns are also generated by the mkiv
font loader, after all. It probably got confused by the kerning classes.
I expect that it actually did work earlier (pre 0.31), and that what you
see now is just a regression. But it is better for me to wait for Hans'
comment than to dive into the code and maybe spend hours on a problem
that would take him 10 seconds.
Best wishes,
Taco
