Hi context list,
I noticed that the ∓ sign is a little higher than the ± sign, so that
the + signs are at the same height. But this looks strange and should be
changed.
Indeed. These look very odd. I tested this with cambria and the outcome
is similar, so this is not a font bug, but something wrong in ConTeXt's
math handling.
I'm not sure if I understand the issue
- lm has + and - touching with the + in the same position as the regular +
- cambria has a gap between + and - and moves the + up and down
Afaik context isn't doing any magic here as these are precomposed glyphs
that directly map.
$a \ruledhbox{$+$} b \ruledhbox{$-$} c$
$a \ruledhbox{$±$} b \ruledhbox{$∓$} c$
they are 'binary' in math mode, just like + and -
