Bug#421577: texlive-metapost: latexMP gets bounding box wrong



Package: texlive-metapost
Version: 2007-5
Severity: normal

latexMP will in some cases get the bounding box wrong, particularly
when there is a minus sign.  In the example below, the two labels come
out with different bounding boxes: the second one goes about .9pt
below the baseline, for some strange reason.  (Possibly this is a
problem with the font rather than latexMP.)

input latexmp;
setupLaTeXMP(class="amsart",
	     fontencoding="T1",
	     textextlabel=enable);

beginfig(0);
  label.top(textext("$1$"), (0,0));
  label.top(textext("$-1$"), (10pt,0));
endfig;

end
