When I replace "s with ß in your example it produces the right output for me (I don't have Arno Pro, but the others work). <br><br>You might not want the line
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc} in XeTeX. The idea of XeTeX is that we use unicode encoding and enter the language (here German) as it is really written (i.e., mit Umlauten). Even the input looks then German :-).<br><br>Rembrandt<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I am using XeTeX 3.141592-0.996 (Web2C 7.5.6) on Mac OS X and am<br>
running into some curious problems with the German sz ligature:<br>
<br>
- The sz ligature never gets shown in italic<br>
- The font for the sz ligature cannot be changed<br>
<br>
The problem occurs only when I include the fontspec package:<br>
<br>
---<br>
\documentclass{scrbook}<br>
\usepackage{xunicode,fontspec,xltxtra}<br>
\usepackage[german]{babel}<br>
\selectlanguage{german}<br>
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}<br>
<br>
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}<br>
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Adobe Garamond Pro}<br>
\setsansfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Lucida Grande}<br>
<br>
\begin{document}<br>
\Huge<br>
<br>
% in regular font, italic<br>
{\itshape Au"serdem Au{^^^^00df}erdem }<br>
% sz does not show up as italic<br>
<br>
% all letters but sz in right font,<br>
% however, sz always shows up in the wrong font<br>
\fontspec{Lucida Grande}<br>
Au"serdem Au{^^^^00df}erdem<br>
<br>
\fontspec{Arno Pro}<br>
Au"serdem Au{^^^^00df}erdem<br>
<br>
{\itshape Au"serdem Au{^^^^00df}erdem}<br>
<br>
\end{document}<br>
---<br>
<br>
The sz ligature always shows up as regular Adobe Garamond Pro, never<br>
in italic nor in any of the other fonts.<br>
<br>
When I remove fontspec, the sz ligature shows up correctly with \itshape.<br>
<br>
Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Niels.<br>
