Revisiting Using Hoefler Text Inside TeX: msg#00285

Subject: Revisiting Using Hoefler Text Inside TeX

Last year there was a thread entitled "Using Hoefler Text Inside TeX", around May.

I followed what was mentioned in the thread (use fontforge, ttf2tex, edit the pdftex.cfg, and then a sample file). I ended up with a document that uses Hoefler Text. Unfortunately, the various ligatures (e.g., ff) appear as their un-ligatured (?) form.

Any advice?

And yes, XeTeX does handle this well,though noticeably slower than pdflatex. Since others were successful in this last year, I thought I would ask.

Regards,
Musa
