Omega rendering
noties opened this issue · comments
It appears that Ω (defined as \Omega in LaTeX) symbol is not rendered by Android. It is defined in the /jlatexmath/jlatexmath/src/main/assets/org/scilab/forge/jlatexmath/fonts/latin/jlm_cmr10.ttf font and mapped to the 00AD symbol. Other glyphs from the same font are rendered OK. The nature of this behavior is unclear.
Possible workaround is to use text mode to render Omega symbol:
\mbox{Ω}Please note that this requires jlatexmath-android-font-greek dependency.
Hi, I'm also using jlatexmath in android and had encountered the same problem. I didn't find the exact cause but have a solution. In jlatexmath, \Omega is placed in U+00AD in its fonts. If you change it to U+00AC or other places, it will be rendered properly. I think maybe it's because U+00AD is a somewhat special character in unicode and android is doing something special while rendering it.
