Hello, I have been using the lucida fonts without problems for a long time. They work like a charm with mactex 2007 but moving to the 2008 version I've found that some math symbols are shuffled or simply do not appear in the pdf. For example, \midint compiles correctly but do not appear in the pdf result. I have checked everything that I can imagine but cannot find a reason for this behaviour. As example, the result that I get when i compile \setupcolors[state=start] \usetypescript[lucida][texnansi] \usetypescript[lucidabfm][texnansi] \usetypescript[lucidaboldmath][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] \starttext \showmathcharacters \stoptext can be seen at http://www.ugr.es/~alaminos/_Media/lucida-2008.pdf Any ideas? Thanks, Jeronimo ------------------------------------- Jerónimo Alaminos Prats Dpto. Análisis Matemático Facultad de Ciencias Universidad de Granada Granada - 18071 alaminos@ugr.es

tug version will work in both mkiv and mkii. (I mean luatex 0.30.0)
in the future I think we should suggest TUG to distribute opentype
version of the font (including converting the math glyphs into
opentype math table).

This is because the math encoding files have not been completely extended to mkiv yet. We are in the process of adding encoding information for all unicode math symbols. \midintop is not a unicode character, and we need to figure out how to represent non-unicode characters in the private areas of unicode table. I do not know if there is a temporary workaround to make this work. Aditya

Thank for the interest. In the meanwhile I've made some advances with my problem. The output of \showmathcharacters is ok if I add \usemathcollection[lbr] but even with this there are fonts that do no get loaded. For example \usetypescript[lucida][texnansi] \usetypescript[lucidabfm][texnansi] \usetypescript[lucidaboldmath][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[lucida,12pt] \usemathcollection[lbr] \starttext $\midint$ \stoptext compiles ok but the midint is missing and the font lbme is not loaded. You can see the log at http://www.ugr.es/local/alaminos/_Media/midint.log Strange enough, i can produce the symbol by showing the whole font but, even in this case i do not obtain any result from $\midint$. The log and the result of compiling \usemodule[fnt-01] \usetypescript[lucida][texnansi] \usetypescript[lucidabfm][texnansi] \usetypescript[lucidaboldmath][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] \usemathcollection[lbr] \starttext $\midint$ \ShowFont[LucidaNewMath-Extension][lbme] \stoptext is this http://www.ugr.es/local/alaminos/_Media/texnansi-bh-lucida.pdf http://www.ugr.es/local/alaminos/_Media/texnansi-bh-lucida.log Can any of you reproduce this behaviour with mactex 2008? Any ideas? Thank you, Jeronimo. ------------------------------------- Jerónimo Alaminos Prats Dpto. Análisis Matemático Facultad de Ciencias Universidad de Granada Granada - 18071 alaminos@ugr.es

Solved. \enablemathcollection[lbr] does the trick. Thanks to everybody. ------------------------------------- Jerónimo Alaminos Prats Dpto. Análisis Matemático Facultad de Ciencias Universidad de Granada Granada - 18071 alaminos@ugr.es

I'm using context mkii not mkiv. Here you can find the log http://www.ugr.es/~alaminos/_Media/lucida-2008.log Sorry if the message with the log appears twice. It seems that the log file it's too large for an attachment to the list. Thank you. ------------------------------------- Jerónimo Alaminos Prats Dpto.
