Hy there,
Do you know some Fraktur-compliant fonts?

Try yfrak from the yfonts bundle.

I suppose they do support Fraktur compulsory ligatures?

What about reading the manual?

Sorry, I didn't mean to be impolite

I just pointed out the best source of information.

OK, no problem,

! I just read the documentation of both fonts, and as I suspected, they use proprietary renderings, not Unicode compliant. Which means a hell of troubles if I have to convert back or convert to plain text. What I'd like to do is using a font that uses OpenType ligatures, that I can turn on through fontspec.
Did I make myself clear enough?

If you want a Unicode font for use with XeLaTeX, then maybe something at the UniFraktur site could help?

Thank you, that's what I was looking for!

OK, first problem:
Can I get Latex to automatically display all non-terminal s as long s? It's mandatory in Fraktur!
Thank you!
