Does anyone use math? For I am surprised that nobody is complaining.
(recent minimals, since 8 June, mkiv)
The following minimal example
% mkiv
\usetypescript[postscript]
\usetypescript[pagella]
\starttext
default: $A = \pi r^2$
\switchtobodyfont[postscript]
postscript: $A = \pi r^2$
\switchtobodyfont[pagella]
pagella: $A = \pi r^2$
\stoptext
renders incorrectly.
1. no TeXGyre \pi (or other math symbols)
2. the math "r" is strange (outlined and unselectable under Acroread)
3. numerous error messages using libpoppler (okular, evince)
I have confirmed the buggy behaviour offline, but I'm afraid that only
Hans can fix it.
(my off-list response:)
The version that breaks is apparently beta-2009.06.10 (the version
from 8th June still worked). But there are too many changes to find a
single simple reason for the failure. I leave it to Hans to sort it
out ... now that he has the git repository, it should be easier for
him to find the reason :) :) :)
the problem is that px/tx is somewhat messy; if you change this in math-vfu
{ name = "rpxr.tfm", vector = "tex-mr" } ,
{ name = "rpxmi.tfm", vector = "tex-mi", skewchar=0x7F },
you will get pi's but also lots of warnings about missing chars in the
vector
the only solution is that someone makes proper vectors for rpxr and
rpxmi as i have no time now for that, aditya is away and mojca is in
thesis mode (example vectors are in math-vfu.lua)
