Classic Thesis & Microtype

Question

I would to know if with classicthesis the microtype package must be loaded, or is loaded by default from classicthesis.sty. And if is loaded, what features are enabled?

if the microtype package must be loaded, is better this way:

\documentclass{scrreprt}

\usepackage[protrusion=true,expansion=true,auto=true,tracking=true]{microtype}

\usepackage[pdfspacing]{classicthesis}

\begin{document}

test

\end{document}

or this?:

\documentclass{scrreprt}

\usepackage[pdfspacing]{classicthesis}

\microtypesetup{protrusion=true,expansion=true,auto=true,tracking=true}

\begin{document}

test

\end{document}

Another thing: this is a good setting basic for microtype?

\usepackage[protrusion=true,expansion=true,auto=true,tracking=true]{microtype}

Answer 1

Yes, classicthesis loads microtype with the option pdfspacing. You can change the options by issuing

\PassOptionsToPackage{<options>}{microtype}

before

\usepackage{classicthesis}
