In the microtype documentation it advices one to use settings that complement one's choice of font. I use libertine font. Does anyone know of any options or settings that specifically suit this font?

Best Answer
I created a few preliminary config files for
microtype
andlibertine
for usage withpdflatex
. They're publicly available from my Bitbucket site.They're all named
mt-<fontname>.cfg
and if placed in a suitable place in the local TEXMF tree will be picked up automatically bymicrotype
. This files are far from being complete and surely need a lot of improvement as can be seen in the output of the following sample document. Especially the protrusion lists still are more or less simply those for Computer Modern:Unfortunately my typographic knowledge is one based on the reading of a few books and my untrained eyes. If someone more experienced likes to improve those files I'd be more than happy.
