[NTG-context] superscript spacing: xits math font

2012-08-11 Thread Andreas Mang
Hi there,

Likewise to an issue reported earlier to this list (Math  other issues for TL 
2012) there seems to be a problem with the spacing of the superscript in the 
xits math font, which cannot be controlled via the setupmathematics[italix=n] 
option:

%%% start example 
\setupbodyfont[xits]

\starttext
${\cal P}^hx$
$P^h_mx$
$C^hx$
$W^{-1}x$ 
\stoptext
%%% stop example

For me (ConTeXt ver: 2012.08.10 00:32 MKIV fmt: 2012.8.10) these examples yield 
a too small spacing / negative spacing between the letter and the corresponding 
superscript. Any ideas?

Cheers,
Andreas 

Not quite sure if this is a pure font problem and should be sent to some other 
place than this list?

It seems that ConTeXt is either stripping the italic correction from the
font or not passing it to the TeX backend, which would explain the two
issues you have.
