Hello,

Right now I'm using the following code

I'm quite happy but what is strange is that usually if you use a "good" serif font you get:

A normal amph "&" in general
An alternative amph quite styllictic in italic

But now I just get a normal tilted amph in italic "&"

How may i get a stylistic amph in italic ?

Thank you

I'm not sure that's true. With a good font you get in both cases a suiting ampersand. In my eyes this is the case with the libertine font. But then, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, so...

Anyway. `libertine-otf' provides \libertineGlyph{} and the manual contains a comprehensive list of available glyphs.
