I would like to use KOMA script with a fontsize of 13pt (see very much related question here: Koma Script and real 13pt). Consider the following document:
\documentclass[fontsize=13pt,DIV=12]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
test
\end{document}
I get the following warnings:
Class scrartcl Warning: Using fallback calculation to setup font sizes
(scrartcl) for basic size `13pt' on input line 1564.
LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `OT1/cmr/m/n' in size <13> not available
(Font) size <12> substituted on input line 1564.
LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `T1/cmr/m/n' in size <13> not available
(Font) size <12> substituted on input line 100.
While I absolutely understand the first warning (I'm okay with calculated font sizes) I don't see why LaTeX is complaining about missing font shapes in the computer modern font (I understand cmr
stands for computer modern roman?).
I can get rid of the font shape warnings by using \RequirePackage{fix-cm}
before the documentclass, but that seems strange to me (I want to use lmodern, not computer modern).
I guess that it is save to ignore the warnings (the PDF does not include cm), but I would still like to understand what's going on. I tried to defer the change in fontsize until after lmodern
has been loaded, but it did not help.
