I'm in the process of learning slideshow, and it's tons of fun! I vastly prefer Racket to LaTeX for algorithmically generating slides :-)
However, I'm encountering a pretty major issue with font rendering. I'm running Racket 6.3 under GNOME 3.16 on Linux. I have noticed that, with a number of fonts, lowercase letters following a capital T are drawn very close to the T. My understanding is that Racket uses GTK, Pango, and Cairo to draw, so I tested it out in gedit with the same font, as well as XeTeX. At https://imgur.com/a/BVi2r, you can see the results. The first screenshot is from slideshow, where the word "Types" looks very odd compared to the other two, which have roughly the same layouts. Some other letter spacings are also a bit compressed, but none as radically as "Ty". Is this a misconfiguration on my part? A bug in Racket somewhere? Can anyone suggest a work-around?
