Discrepancy in PDF output between linux and windows

Post by CarmeloLabadie »

Hi all,

I've been happily working on a Math paper, both on a Linux system (Fedora 21) where I installed Tex Live; and on a Windows 7 machine, where I installed MikTex. I'm editing the same .tex file on both systems.

The oddity is that the PDF output on the windows machine appears to be correct (at least it's what I expect) vs what lualatex produces on the linux system.

The somewhat subtle issue that anything generated by "math mode" on the linux (lualatex) version, the font looks slightly different from normal mode. The math mode text (which appears to be computer modern) appears slightly thinner and perhaps slightly smaller than the normal text mode. I'm not talking about the fact that letters are italicized etc. - what I'm describing is apparent on numbers.

However, on the windows system, the text matches perfectly (eg. a "1" looks exactly the same in normal vs math mode) - which is what I expect.

Is this a known issue? Am I missing something?

If anyone needs more details to help answer this query, I'll be happy to provide them.

Cheers,
Carmelo Ladabie
