how can I avoid that the following expression
\documentclass[a4paper,fontsize=14pt]{scrbook}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\begin{document}
\begin{align}
a = \sqrt[m]{\sum_{i=1}^{n}b_{i}^m}.
\end{align}
\end{document}
is displayed in this form ($m$ is cut by the root symbol):
Thanks for you help.

It's the usual problem due to the setting of the math extension font done by
lmodern.sty
, which definesOMX/lmex/m/n
for it with this completely wrong font definition file:This means that
lmex10
is used no matter what the surrounding font size is. This might seem to work at standard sizes (it doesn't, however, try with\sum
in a subscript).I usually suggest to reinstate the Computer Modern math extension font, but applying the fact that nowadays arbitrary scaling is possible.
