Hi Will,

Thanks for this hint. I updated to this last fontspec version (2.1d) and now it brings no error message anymore and bold italic is set correctly in ordinary text...

Though, this leads me to the additional note, that in math mode---which is typically set in italics---, the use of \mathbf{x} does not produce a bold italic variant but rather only a bold upright variant of x in this case. If I use the \pmb{x} or \bm{x} commands instead for instance, XeLaTeX produces a bold italic looking variant of the letter x. In closer inspection, however, the bold italic x is nothing else than a normal italic x superimposed on another one with a slight offset...

Is there a way to use the regular \mathbf{...} command to have bold italic math?

Thanks,
Pinfeng
