Viertelgeviertstrich/hyphen with UnifrakturMaguntia and XeLatex
TeX - LaTeX Asked by Dux on February 11, 2021
I’m trying to get Fraktur-letters to work in Texstudio. It’s working mostly, but not the "Viertelgeviertstrich"/- which should become a short =.
https://ibb.co/Wtv363S
The top of the picture shows how the 3 hyphen types should look like. Then in the middle are two examples how they should look like in text, one in the middle and one at the end.
But at the bottom is the result I get, no errors in the console.
Not even working in this simple document:
% !TeX program = xelatex
documentclass{minimal}
usepackage{fontspec}
defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX}
setmainfont{UnifrakturMaguntia19}
begin{document}

According to your log, you’re using a version of the font that somehow does not contain the hyphen-minus character.
When I compile with the full version of the font and set the same options as for UnifrakturMaguntia19, per the documentation, it works for me, with double hyphens:
% !TeX program = xelatex
documentclass{minimal}
tracinglostchars=2
usepackage{fontspec}
defaultfontfeatures{Ligatures=TeX}
setmainfont{UnifrakturMaguntia.ttf}[
Ligatures={Common,Historic},
CharacterVariant={11,13,14,19},
Numbers=Lining] % 19th-century options.
begin{document}
H-Milch
i-Punkt
100-prozentig
end{document}
This should work the way the font you loaded is supposed to, and not be broken. (The numbered variants are really for applications where an author is not able to individually select OpenType features.)
You might also see if there’s a more recent version of UnifrakturMaguntia19.ttf that fixes this.

You shouldn't use the 19 variant, but the standard font.
I downloaded the fonts from SourceForge and unzipped the archive. In the top-level directory I prepared the file
documentclass{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
setmainfont{UnifrakturMaguntia}[Path=./,Extension=.ttf]
newfontfamily{nineteen}{UnifrakturMaguntia19}[Path=./switched-on_features/,Extension=.ttf]
begin{document}
H-Milch
i-Punkt
100-prozentig
nineteen
H-Milch
i-Punkt
100-prozentig
end{document}
and I got
The fonts in the switched-on_features directory have enabled features according to the following table
You can enable each feature by passing options to setmainfont. For instance, in order to enable ss01 you can do
setmainfont{UnifrakturMaguntia}[
Path=./, % adjust the path or remove this if the font is installed system-wide
Extension=.ttf, % remove if the font is installed system-wide
StylisticSet=1,
]
With StylisticSet={1,2} you enable both ss01 and ss02.
For the cv variants, you can add options such as
CharacterVariant={11,14}
to enable both cv11 and cv14. For lnum the option is Numbers=Lining, for hlig it is Ligatures={TeX,Historical} (you want to keep also the TeX-style ligatures).
