Support for math features of Open Type Font

Could it be possible? Render proper equations on Beamer with LaTeX should be interesting with this font :) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/math

Hi! Yes it’s an interesting idea. To my knowledge, the Glyphs app (used to create the font) doesn’t support it, but perhaps there are workarounds.

I don’t think Latex uses any monospaced fonts for maths at present, does it?

I think that in Beamer it could be great, because sherif fonts are not recommended there. But for apply math ligatures, I guess JuliaMono in that context shouldn't be monospaced, because nature of Math Equations.

I was thinking too about maybe some terminal could be support this too. Maybe It could get the space of equation to be equal to the number of Unicode chars, or something like it. In this way, we get equations rendered directly on terminal, under some conditions. But I don't know if it is possible at all.

Btw thanks for your font :)

This link is a recompilation of Mozilla with fonts which has those OTF Math properties.

And here there are some comparatives of some of those fonts with, by example, a number of features. New Modern Computer and Stix Two Math are winners. But a font which get a lot of similarity with a monospaced font is DejaVu Math Font, however it is not completed and doesn't get updates since 2016.
