If I compile the following code (TeXLive 2011; Mac OS X 10.7.2, latexmk 4.26), I get wrongly placed tildes (in the middle of the letters instead of on top of them). Is this a bug?
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
\usepackage[lm,T1experimental]{sfmath}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\begin{document}
$\tilde{\psi}$ $\tilde{A}$
\end{document}
\usepackage{lmodern}
and thelm
package option fromsfmath
seems to solve the problem. Note the package Bugs and Limitations: "The font metrics are not adjusted to math usage (this may result in typographically unsatisfying results)."accents
package.sfmath
is the best approach. But I won't start fixing accents since that's not the only problem.lmodern
is a must-have for me.
