Hi,

I tried the new version 5 of the Linux Libertine font. I'm getting a way to
heavy serif font. Could someone please check if this a problem with my setup
or a real problem?

Thanks,
Sebastian

\documentclass[fontsize=12pt]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Linux Libertine O}

\begin{document}

verylongword \it{verylongword} {\itshape verylongword}

\end{document}


After a recent update I had the same problem, and the recommended \usepackage{libertine} was not a good solution for me, since I have a number of macros that rely on fontspec's addfontfeature.

The solution turned out to be very simple:

  \setmainfont[Mapping=tex-text,
               Ligatures=Common,
               Numbers=OldStyle,
               ItalicFont={* Italic},
                                    ]{Linux Libertine O}

That is, I explicitly called for the standard italic. This is on Windows 7 x64 (with MikTeX 2.9 32-bit, but that may not be relevant).
