Hi all,

I've been TeX-doodling with the font shown on the page below:

Some of the nicer patterns are predicated on having horizontal as well as vertical elements smashed up next to one another. I find myself having to adjust for little gaps with:
 \godown[-0.029\bodyfontsize]

Does this ring a bell with anyone?


The last time I had problems with minute offsets, it was Acrobat's
fault. Do you also have problems in DVI mode?

Hmm. I do need to examine it in different viewers... Nope. Adobe Acrobat gives the same results as Apple's PDF implementation.

I'm a bit stuck with DVI: dvipdfmx has trouble seeing the converted Mac font as a TTF font. (Once I worked through the difference in map file format...) Clearly there's a disagreement on which tables are required.

Thanks, though. The negative offset is not a big problem. The only weird thing is the feature interaction I also posted about.
