I have began using the Minion Pro series of fonts and compiling with XeLaTeX. However, despite the typeface changing, I still have the same CM Modern Math fonts. Do any of you have a good suggestion for a good math font that works with Minion Pro?
I have used \usepackage{mathastext}
and the italic varient \usepackage[italic]{mathastext}
but the 'f' in math mode is very awkward and too close to the parethesis. The code that produces this effects is:
\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex}
\setmainfont{Minion Pro}
\usepackage[italic]{mathastext}
\begin{document}
This is the standard Minion Pro Font\ldots My issue is with the 'f' in italic math mode. It needs more space. For example:
\begin{equation}
f(x) = x^2 + f(n-1)
\end{equation}
\end{document}
Is there a better option than \usepackage{mathastext}
? or is there a way to adjust this minor issue? I have never been able to get \usepackage{MnSymbol}
working (I keep getting a Command \mathdollar
already defined error) and Minion Math is well... pricey.
Minion
packages which are presumably a better choice; but for the record let me mention that you can issue\MTsetmathskips {f}{0mu}{1mu}
to have extra white space of1mu
automatically inserted in math mode after eachf
. (adjust this to the value of your taste)
