Icelandic LaTeX users have been +using cm-super to render the Þ (thorn) and Ð (eth) characters in type 1, +and although cm-super does a fine job, lmodern seems like a cleaner +solution to the Þ and Ð problem.<br> +I understand you are still working on the fonts, and I'd like to offer my +comments on issues specific to Icelandic characters. If you open the three +attached PDF documents (not provided here, Jacko does have the examples), you will notice mainly three differences: (1) the +upper case Þ should carry its belly higher in lmodern, (2) the comma over +the ú should have a lower angle, and (3) the neck of the ð should be bent +further down. Knuth's bitmaps and cm-super look similar to books printed +in Iceland.<br> +The kerning is also an issue, in light of Knuth's original goal, described +in the TUGboat 21(2): "the rendering [should] be the same in ten years +[...] on everybody's machine it [should] come out the same, not only now +but in the future." An ambitious goal, but at any rate, the smaller the +kerning differences, the better. + </li> + <li> + Morten Høgholm (2004-06-11): +At this years BachoTeX I talked to Boguslaw about adding some more +ligatures to Latin Modern, as we in Danish really need fj. At +<a href="http://www.eur.nl/fw/staff/lokhorst/metafont.html" +>http://www.eur.nl/fw/staff/lokhorst/metafont.html</a> a lot of ligatures are +shown, although not all of them are particular nice. He promised to look +at it. (When you have the standard fi and ij ligatures, you would also +think there should be an fij, right? In polish they have a common flower +named `fijolet' making Boguslaw even more eager to add it... The Dutch use +it in common words as `fijn' as well.) I guess this calls for a special +fontencoding for Danish users. + <a href="mailto:h.harders@tu-bs.de">Harald Harders</a>: +There are some good ligatures. But for example the fff ligature is useless +in German. You should be careful in adding new ligatures. + </li> + <li> + Martín Darío Safe (2004-07-05): +When using the lm package version 0.92, almost all occurrences of +‘ij’ and ‘IJ’ in your document will output ij +and IJ Dutch digraphs.

Also, this behaviour can prevent you from copying and pasting, +searching, and indexing words containing ‘ij’ on PDF +files for non-Dutch texts. +More description about that topic at +<a href="http://www.mdsafe.com.ar/ijdigraphissue.htm" +>http://www.mdsafe.com.ar/ijdigraphissue.htm</a>. + </li> + <li> + <a href="mailto:eckhard.neber@web.de">Eckhard Neber</a> (2004-07-09): +I asked on dctt why the glyphs of scedilla and tcedilla are different +from the others and was pointed to +<a href="http://www.tug.org/tug2003/preprints/Jackowski/jackowski.pdf" +>http://www.tug.org/tug2003/preprints/Jackowski/jackowski.pdf</a> +It says that this is a feature following the rules of the Romanian +language, but referring to +<a href="http://www.evertype.com/alphabets/turkish.pdf" +>"http://www.evertype.com/alphabets/turkish.pdf</a> +it is handled differently in Turkish. +Is there a possibility to have both variants? + </li> + <li> + <a href="mailto:ralf.stubner@physik.uni-erlangen.de">Ralf Stubner</a> + (2004-07-17): +Similar to [sS]cedilla, [tT]cedilla should really be a [tT] with cedilla +below. Both, [sS]cedilla and [tT]cedilla should be used in T1/Cork +encoding, as the turkish [sS]cedilla would not be available otherwise, +and using [sS]cedilla and [tT]commacent at the same time would be +inconsistent. [sS]commaacent and [tT]commacent are still available via +the QX encoding. Also, the EC fonts, which can be seen as reference +implementation of the T1/Cork encoding, use [sS]cedilla and [tT]cedilla. + </li> + <li> + Ramón Casares + (2005-06-01): +The Latin Modern fonts are really needed in Spanish, so I am following its +development with much interest. One thing I have notice, comparing last year +printings – from August to be more precise – with printings done with the +new version, is the horizontal placement of the acute accent. In the last +year printing, the acute accent was a little bit to the right, but +acceptable. The current version is too much to the left. And, in the case of +the <code>í</code>, is imposible for me not to notice it every time I +read it. So I would suggest to use the Computer Modern model to place the +acute accent, which is just where it should. + </li> + <li> + Stephan Hennig + (2005-03-08): +In thread "Italicalized old-style figures" from 2004-09-08 on +comp.text.tex there has been some agreement to the opinion CM's +old-style figures do look ugly. Is it possible for LM to provide nicer +old-style figures?<br> +As I'm completely ignorant about font design I don't really know what +makes CM's old-style figures look so boring.
