But isn't it much nicer when one can choose a particular shape for the Latin
script? One that can match the size or width of the other script?
Anyway, I have a particular feature request… It's not clear whether Polyglossia
should be made responsible for this, or XeTeX…
The story behind it
===================
\fontname\font returns in XeTeX in the PDF file a text string, including the
double-quotes, like for example:
“Arial/OT:script=latn;language=DFLT;mapping=tex-text;letterspace=50;”
When I am in some non-Latin script, it's likely that a lot of open boxes can be
output. When I think I am clever and choose to \latinfont{\fontname\font}, I
get the font which is used for the Latin script, of course…
Well, at least these strings or texts are also written into the LOG file – but
which TeX user reads them? Where is this LOG file at all?!
