superscript directly on top of subscript

[OliverG]

Hi,
some fonts like *Linux Libertine* will automatically move subsequent super- and subscripts on top of each other via negative kerning (if you put the subscript first):

This works fine in MS Word, for example, but I can't seem to realise it within Oxygen (author mode), although the font is installed and chosen as default author font in the options.
Is there a way to make it work?
Kind regards!

Hi,

I do not see a way to make this work right now in the Oxygen Author visual editing mode, we do not have a specific setting to make this work.

I added an internal issue to find some time and look into this:
EXM-53394 Consider enable kerning when rendering content in the Author mode

But this is low priority for us, even if we enable font kerning we might bump into various side effects, for example problems with selection, caret navigation and right now you are the only person who requested this so far.

Regards,
Radu

Ok, thanks a lot for the response. Maybe some day in the future ...
