Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\def\DesiredFont{TeX Gyre Termes}
\definefontfeature[italic][itlc=yes,textitalics=yes]
\setupitaliccorrection[global, always]
\definefontfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[\DesiredFont]
\definefontfamily
[mainface_corrected]
[rm]
[\DesiredFont]
[features={italic}]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\setupitaliccorrection[global,always]
\starttext
\startbuffer[chars]
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\dorecurse{26}
{\setupbodyfont[mainface]%
[{\em \recurselevel}]
[{\em \characters{\recurselevel}}]
[{\em \Characters{\recurselevel}}]
({\em \characters{\recurselevel}})
({\em \Characters{\recurselevel}})
\hfill
\setupbodyfont[mainface_corrected]
[{\em \recurselevel}]
[{\em \characters{\recurselevel}}]
[{\em \Characters{\recurselevel}}]
({\em \characters{\recurselevel}})
({\em \Characters{\recurselevel}})
\par}
\stopTEXpage
\stopbuffer
\getbuffer[chars]
\def\DesiredFont{TeX Gyre Pagella}
\getbuffer[chars]
\stoptext
This shows that sequences such as ({\em f}) are corrected with the
closing parenthesis, but not with the opening one.
Wouldn’t it be possible that italic correction could be enabled also
before the italic glyph(s)?
BTW, I wonder why the second definition of \DesiredFont doesn’t change
the font for the buffer used after it.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
