[XeTeX] Font corruption (?) problem

Hello, I have a peculiar problem that's driving me crazy. I'm using a MacBook Pro under Snow Leopard and MacTex, installed a few months back. I have a XeTeX source file (see below) which compiled fine, and produced a nice PDF. I then copied four lines from the PDF and pasted them into MS Word so

[XeTeX] french hyphenation for XeTeX (not XeLaTeX)

Hello, is french hyphenation available with XeTeX ? I insist, it is XeTeX + plain, not XeLaTeX because I have to compile an 'old' french book, written with plain. I work with TeXShop on a Macintosh (last distribution). Thank you. Raymond Séroul Université de Strasbourg

[XeTeX] IPA superscript diacritics

2010-11-06 Thread Kevin Russell
I often use the Unicode characters for IPA superscript diacritics (like aspiration [ʰ], palatalization [ʲ], velarization [ʷ]) in the source of my XeLaTeX documents. While the symbols *look* fine in the resulting PDF, they're no longer the correct Unicode characters. For example, apiration [

I can't reproduce the problem here. I processed your source file using XeLaTeX, opened the resulting PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader 9, copied the entire text, pasted it into WordPad, selected each superscript in turn, and used each in a Ctrl-F "Find" dialogue : only the superscript was found in each
