  2. Math typesetting In order to typeset math, one needs a math font and a typesetting engine that is able to make use of the information contained in that font. Until recently, the only engine that could be used for this purpose (in serious applications) was T EX with fonts consisting of TFM metrics and glyphs supplied either as PK bitmaps or PostScript Type 1 fonts (claimed by Adobe as obsolete since a few years). Recently, however, another fairly powerful engine was released: MS Office 2007, using a modern OpenType font with math info (Cambria). Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  3. Math typesetting: problems of today Despite the similarities of T EX and OpenType math (the latter is based on the TEX concept) there are significant differences which do not allow for automated one-to-one transitions between both “worlds”. The official documentation of math for OpenType fonts is rather poor: “confidential”, that is, unseen by many users, not many applications do understand OpenType math data (more about that later). With TEX the situation is better, but far from delighting (consider, e.g., the number of math fonts for TEX ). It should be emphasized, however, that thanks to the efforts of George Williams, Jonathan Kew, Ulrik Vieth, Hans Hagen, Taco Hoekwater and others, the situation recently has significantly improved. Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  4. Math typesetting: problems of today – a digression A simple operation, scaling , commonly supported by existing font rasterizers Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  5. Math typesetting: problems of today – a digression Another relatively simple operation, interpolation , used to be supported by Adobe Multiple Master engines Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  6. Math typesetting: problems of today – a digression Yet another simple operation, translation of selected nodes , unavailable in existing rasterizers Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  7. Math typesetting: problems of today – a digression Fairly complex operations, glyph replacement and glyph assembling , stemming from Gutenberg’s ideas, available in T EX, recently also in rasterizers of OTF fonts Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  8. Math typesetting: problems of today – cont. There are only a few OpenType fonts with math, actually just two: Cambria (commercial, Microsoft) and Asana (free, Apostolos Syropoulos). Available math testing tools (X TEX, luaT EX, E MS Office 2007, FontForge) are not fully proven and that is very painful. The same applies for math OpenType fonts creation. In principle, only FontForge is useable. The commercial FontLab and free (but not open source) Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType do not allow for adding math to OpenType fonts. Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  9. Math typesetting: problems of today – cont. An absolute must: assembling/disassembling – until recently not available. Many tools seemingly suitable for those tasks cannot, in practice, be used; e.g., Microsoft’s ttfdump, ttoasm, ttodasm (work “partly”  do not “understand” math, are cumbersome with respect to handling, unmaintained since 2002) or the free TTX (also works partly, does not “understand” math, not maintained regularly – last update in May 2008). Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  10. Math typesetting: problems of today – r´ esum´ e What’s left is FontForge (last update – June, 2009): • it can be used in batch mode or even as a Python module, • it outputs and inputs fonts as text files ( SFD – Spline Font Database), • it understands the AFDKO FEA format (i.e., it accepts the AFDKO files containing the descriptions of OpenType font features), • there exists sfddiff, a program for semantic comparison of SFD files (thus really OpenType font files). Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  11. Preparing the “attack” In order to concentrate fully on the math aspects, however, we have to freeze for some time (a few years?) the work on the Latin Modern and T EX Gyre collections. Hence copious changes introduced during this year. One of the very important changes in LMs is the update of shapes according to a series of D.E. Knuth recent corrections; as concerns TGs, one cannot underestimate the importance of the fact that they are now legally available under the LPPL (GFL) licence. We expect to release the versions 2.xxx of the Latin Modern and TEX Gyre fonts soon after the EuroTEX2009 meeting. Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P.

  20. Does slanting preserve tangency? Answer 1: yes, of course Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  21. Does slanting preserve tangency? Answer 2: of course not In Metafont and Metapost, the pen is not slanted (automatically) if the path is slanted. Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  22. Does slanting preserve tangency? Answer 3: yes, but not of course Den Haag, August 31 st –September 4 th , 2009 B. Jackowski, J. B. Ludwichowski, P. Strzelczyk Math fonts: notes...

  27. The directions to “attack” The task lies not in the creation of a single font (this can be done in a more or less manual way) but in creating of a technology providing convenient means of adding mathematics to already existing fonts, e.g., to the T EX Gyre family; therefore, GUI only tools are of no interest.

Therefore, the main direction to attack: remaking of MetaType1 into MetaTypeO, i.e., Metapost + Python scripts to generate OpenType fonts directly using the ‘fontforge’ Python module.
