Hello,
Can someone tell my why the \textsuperscript commands in the code
below do not generate the expected result. The french "è" in "3ème"
or "2ème" is set in standard size and not in superscript as it
appears in the attached pdf file. I have no idea if this is a
standard LaTex issue or if it is related to XeLaTex. Do i do
something wrong or is this a bug ?
Thanks of any help you can provide.
Adobe Garamond Pro doesn't have a è in its list of superiors, but
since the font does have superiors, xltxtra uses that font feature to
superscript the text, yielding the result you get. If you change
the font to e.g. Garamond Premier Pro or Minion Pro (if you have them)
the è will be properly superscripted.
(This is what Ulrike alluded to by pointing to the xltxtra
documentation (which also suggests solutions)).
