What do you mean? At https://josephernest.github.io/writing/ https://josephernest.github.io/writing/ it includes cmunrm.otf:
@font-face {
font-family: texroman;
src: url(cmunrm.otf); /* https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/267197/27733 */
}
And a spot check of some of symbols in the rendered math seems to prove it is Computer Modern.
Funnily for me, just today I was telling a colleague how I'm happy to see math textbooks that aren't in Computer Modern.
- pavlov 9y agoComputer Modern is not a good font. No professional designer would use it for long body text. The only reason it's still used in CS papers is a persistent blend of hero worship (it's by Knuth!), implementation fetishism (it's a Metafont!), and plain old cargo cult.
- psychometry 9y agoCM looks good to me because it matches the standard roman math notation and because I'm used to it. Objectively, mtpro2 is much nicer: https://www.pctex.com/mtpro2.html https://www.pctex.com/mtpro2.html
- kccqzy 9y agoI see this: https://imgur.com/a/vvYpW https://imgur.com/a/vvYpW The symbols and letters are so wrong. Inspecting the element shows that the font family is STIXGeneral. On the other hand I find it amusing that an editor that purports to be "distraction-free" uses fake italics (known as \textsl in LaTeX) who are incredibly distracting to me. It also uses fake bold but at least that's slightly more tolerable. Look if you want things to be both minimalistic and "distraction-free" you have to make the typography perfect otherwise mistakes in typography stick out like a sore thumb.
- kmill 9y agoI see CM myself. Perhaps STIX is in your cache or installed locally, since MathJax makes some attempt not to download fonts.
