<p>The <cite>isomath</cite> package provides tools for a mathematical style
that conforms to the International Standard ISO&nbsp;80000-2 and is
common in science and technology. It changes the default shape of
capital Greek letters to italic, sets up bold italic and
sans-serif bold italic math alphabets with Latin and Greek
characters, and defines macros for markup of vector, matrix and
tensor symbols.</p>

variables where style variations are important semantically”.
The font guide <a class="citation-reference" href="#fntguide" id="id12">[fntguide]</a> defines in

<p>Some math fonts are selected explicitly by one-argument commands
such as <tt class="literal">\mathsf{max}</tt> or <tt class="literal">\mathbf{vec}</tt>; such fonts are called
<em>math alphabets</em>.</p>
<p>Math fonts [...] have the same five attributes as text fonts:
encoding, family, series, shape and size. However, there are no
commands that allow the attributes to be individually changed.
Instead, the conversion from math fonts to these five attributes is
controlled by the <a class="reference internal" href="#math-version">math version</a>.</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id50"><span class="sectnum">4.2</span> OML font encoding</a></h2>
<p>The equal treatment of Latin and Greek letters in the <a class="reference internal" href="#iso-math-style">“ISO” math
style</a> is best achieved with a font that contains all required
letters in one file.</p>
<p>There is only one established LaTeX font encoding that contains Latin and
Greek letters, the <a class="reference internal" href="#oml-font-encoding">OML font encoding</a>. The standard Greek font
encoding <cite>T7</cite> is just a “reserved name” and the de-facto standard
Greek text font encoding <cite>LGR</cite> has no Latin letters. Unfortunately,
<a class="reference internal" href="#oml-support">OML support</a> is limited to a few (mostly italic) fonts.</p>
<div class="section" id="discussion">
<h3><span class="sectnum">4.2.1</span> Discussion</h3>
<p>The <cite>LaTeX font encodings</cite> guide <a class="citation-reference" href="#encguide" id="id21">[encguide]</a> names the OML encoding
<cite>TeX math italic</cite> and defines:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The OML encoding contains italic Latin and Greek letters for use in
mathematical formulae (typically used for variables) together with some
symbols.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The reference to <em>italic</em> shape is odd:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>No other font encoding is specific to a font shape.</p></li>
<li><p>The different font selection and the semantic of font features in
mathematical formulae do not interfere with the font <em>encoding</em>: Both,
<tt class="literal">\DeclareSymbolFont</tt> and <tt class="literal">\DeclareMathAlphabet</tt> require a
shape argument. Thus it is possible to set up OML encoded math
alphabets in roman {n} as well as italic {it} shape without
conflicts.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>This seems to be more a remnant of pre-NFSS times than a necessary
restriction – there is only one OML encoded font in Knuth's Computer
Modern fonts: <cite>Computer Modern Math Italic</cite> (cmmi).</p>
<p>Proposals:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Drop the <em>italic</em> from the definition. Optionally add an explanation:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The OML encoding contains Latin and Greek letters for use in
mathematical formulae (typically used for variables) together with
some symbols. It first appeared in the <cite>Computer Modern Math
Italic</cite> (cmmi) font.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p>The name <cite>TeX math italic</cite> can be interpreted as “the encoding
<strong>of</strong> <cite>Computer Modern Math Italic</cite>” rather than “an encoding
<strong>for</strong> math italic” fonts.</p>
<p>A less confusing name would be <cite>TeX math letters</cite> or <cite>Original/Old
Math Letters</cite>. The latter would also explain the acronym OML.</p>

<h3><span class="sectnum">4.3.2</span> The unicode-math package</h3>
<p>Users of UTF-8 enabled TeX engines (XeTeX, LuaTeX) can typeset
mathematics with the experimental <a class="reference external" href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/unicode-math.html">unicode-math</a> package by Will
Robertson. It provides a LaTeX interface to OpenType fonts with math
support, e. g., <a class="reference external" href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/asana-math.html">Asana Math</a>, Cambria Math, <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/khaledhosny/euler-otf">New Euler</a> or <a class="reference external" href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/xits.html">XITS</a>, with
commands to access the complete mathematical character repertoire of the
Unicode Standard.</p>

<ul>
<li><p><a class="reference internal" href="#math-alphabets">Math alphabets</a> map to a range of the <a class="reference internal" href="#mathematical-alphanumeric-symbols">mathematical alphanumeric
symbols</a> block in the current font (or a substitution defined with the
<tt class="literal">range</tt> math font option).</p>
<p>Some command names differ from the <a class="reference internal" href="#predefined-math-alphabets">predefined math alphabets</a> or the
above <a class="reference internal" href="#naming-scheme">naming scheme</a>:</p>

<p>With unicode-math, <tt class="literal">\mathbf</tt>, <tt class="literal">\mathsf</tt>, and <tt class="literal">\mathsfbf</tt>
behave similar to <a class="reference internal" href="#in-line-math-versions">“in-line math versions”</a>: they consider the
<a class="reference internal" href="#math-style">math style</a> for upright vs. italic shape. Compatibility can be
achieved via the options <tt class="literal"><span class="pre">bold-style=upright</span></tt> and
<tt class="literal"><span class="pre">sans-style=upright</span></tt>.</p>
<p><tt class="literal">\mathbfsfit</tt> reverses the order of the <tt class="literal">sf</tt> and <tt class="literal">bf</tt> selectors,
so that, e. g., the Unicode character MATHEMATICAL SANS-SERIF BOLD
ITALIC CAPITAL A is selected by the non-mnemonic <tt class="literal">\mathbfsfit{A}</tt>.</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id52"><span class="sectnum">4.4</span> Conclusions and outlook</a></h2>
<p>It is hoped, that in the future more font families will support the
OML encoding in normal and bold weight as well as upright and italic
shape. This would be a major step towards a LaTeX equivalent of the
<a class="reference internal" href="#mathematical-alphanumeric-symbols">mathematical alphanumeric symbols</a> Unicode block.</p>
<p>This should be (relatively) easy to achieve via virtual fonts when the
glyphs for the Greek letters already exist. Examples are Latin Modern,
Kerkis, GFS Neohellenic, LX Fonts and KP-Serif.</p>
<p>Upright small Greek letters in <tt class="literal">\mathrm</tt> would enable the
specification of the constant pi, Myons, Pions, alpha-particles,
photons, and neutrinos with <a class="reference internal" href="#math-alphabets">math alphabets</a>. (With <a class="reference external" href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/mathdesign.html">mathdesign</a>
fonts, this is already possible today.)</p>
<p>With the development of the <a class="reference external" href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/unicode-math.html">unicode-math</a> package, an interesting
alternative for ISO-conforming math typesetting became available to
users of Unicode-enabled TeX engines (XeTeX or LuaTeX).</p>
