Hi, Alexis, very many thanks for the good words and for your insightful comments concerning the metrics of the Latin Modern family of fonts. > For now, I will patch the fonts to adjust the > metrics myself, but it would be wonderful > if they could be updated in the distribution. You are perfectly right that the data has to be amended -- fonts were released in 2009; the making of OTFs was then an additional (not to say redundant ;) ) step, performed using Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType (AFDKO/MakeOTFexe.exe) with chiefly default settings. The time is ripe to prepare a new release of LM OTFs using our updated font generating engine. It cannot be excluded that we will ask you for your opinion. Cheers -- Jacko on behalf of the GUST e-foundry
