ugly display of subscript in italic math equations

[lhg1992]

As shown in those pictures, the position of the subscript is really a mystery@_@ especially for the $V_T$.

Can you please confirm the font version and test environment?

This is what I am seeing in the latest (unreleased) test versions in XeTeX. So I think these issues should be fixed, but there are other aspects of the cut-in kerning that STI Pub want addressed. Awaiting a new work order.

I'm using the "STIXTwoMath-Regular.otf" in office 365 in Windows. I have tried the Ver 2.13~2.11, and also the *.ttf. They are all the same. Hope you can fix the issue. @tiroj
BTW I created a test document to share, not sure if you can see the same issue from your side:

Text.docx

There are definitely some cut-in kerning issues in the 2.13 release, which we have worked on correcting but that STI Pub opted not to release until more work is done.

Oddly, I see the V_T issue when I open your test doc, but not in my own test doc.

Thanks anyway. Really look forward to the new version which can fix the issue so that I don't need to bear the MathType equation figures or the Cambra Math font in the Times New Roman text.

I am finding radically different positioning of subscripts relative to the italic V symbol in MS Word vs XeTeX, and so far nothing in the font that explains it.

MS Word:

XeTex (partial test; need to extend to cover all combinations in the Word test):
