How should fontspec be set up to exploit the best features of Pro fonts?












21















Suppose that you have a Pro class fonts such as Adobe Arno which has several design sizes as described below:



Design    Size  Size Ranges             
Caption: 8 point 5–8.5 point
SmText: 10 point 8.6–11
Regular: 12 point 11.1–14 point
Subhead: 18 point 14.1–21.5 point
Display: 36 point 21.5+ point


Arno Pro is supplied as set of the following font files:



ArnoPro-Bold.otf
ArnoPro-BoldCaption.otf
ArnoPro-BoldDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-BoldItalic.otf
ArnoPro-BoldItalicCaption.otf
ArnoPro-BoldItalicDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-BoldItalicSmText.otf
ArnoPro-BoldItalicSubhead.otf
ArnoPro-BoldSmText.otf
ArnoPro-BoldSubhead.otf
ArnoPro-Caption.otf
ArnoPro-Display.otf
ArnoPro-Italic.otf
ArnoPro-ItalicCaption.otf
ArnoPro-ItalicDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-ItalicSmText.otf
ArnoPro-ItalicSubhead.otf
ArnoPro-LightDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-LightItalicDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-Regular.otf
ArnoPro-Smbd.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdCaption.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdItalic.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdItalicCaption.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdItalicDisplay.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdItalicSmText.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdItalicSubhead.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdSmText.otf
ArnoPro-SmbdSubhead.otf
ArnoPro-SmText.otf
ArnoPro-Subhead.otf



How should one setup fontspec
package to exploit best features of these fonts?




Starting code is here:



usepackage{fontspec}
setmainfont[Renderer=Basic,Ligatures={TeX}]{ArnoPro}


Would it be sufficient? I am not sure that Caption version of these fonts will be invoked by the small or footnotesize switches. What should one add here?



Added at 2nd edit



I mean that in standard LaTeX classes font size declarations are bounded to optical sizes according to the following table:



 declaration  class option  10pt      11pt       12pt

tiny 5pt 6pt 6pt
scriptsize 7pt 8pt 8pt
footnotesize 8pt 9pt 10pt
small 9pt 10pt 11pt
normalsize 10pt 11pt 12pt
large 12pt 12pt 14pt
Large 14pt 14pt 17pt
LARGE 17pt 17pt 20pt
huge 20pt 20pt 25pt
Huge 25pt 25pt 25pt


Hence, for 10pt class option, tiny, scriptsize, footnotesize should switch to Arno Pro Caption, small, normalsize to Arno Pro SmText, large and Large to Arno Pro, LARGE and huge to Arno Pro Subhead, and Huge to Arno Pro Display. All these fonts are actually diffrent, when scaled to same size, so that Caption version looks better for footnosize than Regular vesrion.

    @Igor: These fonts are designed almost only for literary books, and didn't go well for mathematics and physics books. For English, or other Latin alphabet based language, they are acceptable to some degree. But for Russian mathematics and physics books - please don't use them. They are too far from what the Russian reader is trained to read. And that will create a learning overhead until the reader gets familiar with the font. Ну просто не подходят эти шрифты. :)

    ...Latin serif = Антиква латинского стиля and Modern Serif = Антиква нового стиля (классицистическая). Computer Modern is similar to New Standard and is Modern Serif too. Times New Roman is somewhat similar to Literaturnaya, although it is Transitional Serif (Переходная Антиква), not Latin Serif. So, in short Old style Serifs are uncommon for Russian.

Answer to my question occurred to be rather simple. There is no need to invent sophisticated font loading procedure. fontspec package occurred to be smart enough to select correct font shape for every size. To check that one need to run the following simple test:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures={TeX}}
setmainfont{Arno Pro}

begin{document}%
newcommand{MyText}{No offence meant, I even upvoted your answer.}

verb|tiny|=tinyMyTextpar
verb|scriptsize|=scriptsizeMyTextpar
verb|footnotesize|=footnotesizeMyTextpar
verb|normalsize|=normalsizeMyTextpar
verb|large|=largeMyTextpar
verb|Large|=LargeMyTextpar
verb|LARGE|=LARGEMyTextpar
verb|huge|=hugeMyTextpar
verb|Huge|=HugeMyTextpar

end{document}


Then I exported the compiled PDF to MS World and saw that tiny scriptsize and footnotesize are typed by Arno Pro Caption as it should be, and normalsize is typed by Arno Pro SmText as expected, e.c.t.




Great!




Unfortunately, LuaLaTeX on my computer [Version beta-0.70.1-2011052811 (rev 4277) (format=lualatex 2011.6.23)] did not manage to compile that short example, but XeLaTeX have that done very quickly.

    Actually it's XeTeX that automatically selects the optical sizes. But you can use fontspec to fine tune things if necessary (the syntax is a bit verbose, though).

    I've used the approach of simply inserting setmainfont{Arno Pro}[Numbers={Lowercase,Proportional}] for years to load Arno Pro, and it almost always works perfectly. But I've been using Overleaf lately, which requires loading fonts from a local project, plus I wanted to use the Light weights for especially large text in a particular document, so I came up with this to specify the exact ranges and names of the optical sizes. Here, the optical sizes are taken from the Adobe specimen book for Arno Pro, but using the Light Display weight for type above 36pt is my judgement:



    setmainfont{ArnoPro}[
    % Path = {./fonts/}, % use to load from a `fonts` folder in your project
    Extension = {.otf},
    UprightFont = {*-Regular},
    ItalicFont = {*-Italic},
    BoldFont = {*-Smbd},
    BoldItalicFont = {*-SmbdItalic},
    Numbers={Lowercase,Proportional},
    UprightFeatures={
    SizeFeatures={
    {Size={-8.5}, Font=*-Caption},
    {Size={8.6-10.99}, Font=*-SmText},
    {Size={11-14}, Font=*-Regular},
    {Size={14.1-21.59},Font=*-Subhead},
    {Size={21.6-35.99},Font=*-Display},
    {Size={36-}, Font=*-LightDisplay}
    },
    },

      Answer to my question occurred to be rather simple. There is no need to invent sophisticated font loading procedure. fontspec package occurred to be smart enough to select correct font shape for every size. To check that one need to run the following simple test:



      documentclass{article}
      usepackage{fontspec}
      defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures={TeX}}
      setmainfont{Arno Pro}

      begin{document}%
      newcommand{MyText}{No offence meant, I even upvoted your answer.}

      verb|tiny|=tinyMyTextpar
      verb|scriptsize|=scriptsizeMyTextpar
      verb|footnotesize|=footnotesizeMyTextpar
      verb|normalsize|=normalsizeMyTextpar
      verb|large|=largeMyTextpar
      verb|Large|=LargeMyTextpar
      verb|LARGE|=LARGEMyTextpar
      verb|huge|=hugeMyTextpar
      verb|Huge|=HugeMyTextpar

      end{document}


      Then I exported the compiled PDF to MS World and saw that tiny scriptsize and footnotesize are typed by Arno Pro Caption as it should be, and normalsize is typed by Arno Pro SmText as expected, e.c.t.




      Great!




      Unfortunately, LuaLaTeX on my computer [Version beta-0.70.1-2011052811 (rev 4277) (format=lualatex 2011.6.23)] did not manage to compile that short example, but XeLaTeX have that done very quickly.

        Actually it's XeTeX that automatically selects the optical sizes. But you can use fontspec to fine tune things if necessary (the syntax is a bit verbose, though).

              I've used the approach of simply inserting setmainfont{Arno Pro}[Numbers={Lowercase,Proportional}] for years to load Arno Pro, and it almost always works perfectly. But I've been using Overleaf lately, which requires loading fonts from a local project, plus I wanted to use the Light weights for especially large text in a particular document, so I came up with this to specify the exact ranges and names of the optical sizes. Here, the optical sizes are taken from the Adobe specimen book for Arno Pro, but using the Light Display weight for type above 36pt is my judgement:



              setmainfont{ArnoPro}[
              % Path = {./fonts/}, % use to load from a `fonts` folder in your project
              Extension = {.otf},
              UprightFont = {*-Regular},
              ItalicFont = {*-Italic},
              BoldFont = {*-Smbd},
              BoldItalicFont = {*-SmbdItalic},
              Numbers={Lowercase,Proportional},
              UprightFeatures={
              SizeFeatures={
              {Size={-8.5}, Font=*-Caption},

                I've used the approach of simply inserting setmainfont{Arno Pro}[Numbers={Lowercase,Proportional}] for years to load Arno Pro, and it almost always works perfectly. But I've been using Overleaf lately, which requires loading fonts from a local project, plus I wanted to use the Light weights for especially large text in a particular document, so I came up with this to specify the exact ranges and names of the optical sizes. Here, the optical sizes are taken from the Adobe specimen book for Arno Pro, but using the Light Display weight for type above 36pt is my judgement:



                setmainfont{ArnoPro}[
                % Path = {./fonts/}, % use to load from a `fonts` folder in your project
