Minion Pro
is one of the most beautiful fonts and comes with many Adobe products. A complementary set of symbols is provided by the MnSymbol fonts and package, which is not fully compatible to lualatex.
However the best option would be Minion Math, which is commercial, with hardly any free alternative. But...
I'd like to use Minion Pro also for math in lualatex - how can I do that?
This answer already gives a good starting point and this one provides extensive explanations around this issue. There are various more questions about this topic, but I haven't found one giving a complete solution.
Using the linked starting point, one already gets all letters of Minion Pro in the math environment together with mathematical symbols provided by MnSymbol:
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,mathrsfs}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmainfont[Numbers = OldStyle,Ligatures = TeX,SmallCapsFeatures = {Renderer=Basic}]{Minion Pro}
\setmathfont{MnSymbol}
\setmathfont[range=\mathup/{num,latin,Latin,greek,Greek}]{Minion Pro}
\setmathfont[range=\mathbfup/{num,latin,Latin,greek,Greek}]{MinionPro-Bold}
\setmathfont[range=\mathit/{num,latin,Latin,greek,Greek}]{MinionPro-It}
\setmathfont[range=\mathbfit/{num,latin,Latin,greek,Greek}]{MinionPro-BoldIt}
\setmathrm{Minion Pro}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
\mathscr{D}^{\gamma} f(t)= \mathscr{D}^{m} \mathscr{I}^{m-\gamma}
f(t)=\frac{\partial^m }{\partial t^m} \Bigg[ \frac{1}{\Gamma(m-\gamma)}
\int\limits_{0}^{t} \frac{f(\tau )}{(t-\tau)^{\gamma-m+1}} ~\partial{\tau} \Bigg] \:,
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
A =
\left( \begin{array}{ccc}
a_{11} & a_{12} & a_{13} \\
a_{21} & a_{22} & a_{23} \\
a_{31} & a_{32} & a_{33}
\end{array} \right) \qquad
B =
\begin{pmatrix}
a_{11} & a_{12} & a_{13} \\
a_{21} & a_{22} & a_{23} \\
a_{31} & a_{32} & a_{33}
\end{pmatrix}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
y = \sqrt{\frac{z^2}{\ln{z}}} + z \,\Bigg|_{z\,=\,z_0}
\end{equation}
\end{document}
The minimal example from the other linked answer comes out quite faulty as well.
There are a lot of things not working correctly:
- partial differential
\partialand the vertical line character|is missing - the integral and
\sumsymbols are too small - all brackets are not scaling with size of its wrapped content and size specifier like
\Bigg(don't work neither - brackets of matrices don't work
- the square root does not scale
\mathscrdoes not bring any difference- the comma symbol is missing
- the greek letter
epsilonis undefined in MinionPro (at least in old font versions) - to be continued ...
How can I fix them?
There is an alternative approach avoiding unicode-math
and use the non-unicode implementation of MnSymbol
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,mathrsfs}
\usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
\usepackage{MnSymbol}
\setmainfont[...
\begin{document}
...
Which is certainly a working option, but everything looks a little mixed up and I'm not happy with the result.
If you consider this the better approach, feel free to post an answer providing a solution, which gets everything harmonizing a little better.
I'm aware that there are no real solutions unless the OpenType version of MnSymbol gets patched for use in unicode-math. This question is self-answered as I thought it would be worth sharing the (in my opinion) pleasant result, though it is just an ugly workaround.
Please feel free to provide better and simpler workarounds or even part-solutions.
