Are there cases where fontenc + luatex (or xetex) cause problems?
According to the luatex docs, you shouldn't use fontenc
with luatex. People swear up and down that fontenc is incompatible, but I haven't been able to find an example where loading the package causes problems.
(I'm curious about this because it can be easier to load the same base set of packages for pdftex/luatex/xetex, and add fontspec
only when handling the latter two.)
I know fontenc
is not the right way to deal with fonts in luatex or xelatex, but I'm specifically looking for cases where it's detrimental to load the fontenc package. Do you know of any?

It can cause problems if you load both fontspec
and fontenc
together. Here is an example that loads the legacy Utopia font, which is T1-encoded, but then also tries to load a modern Unicode font through Babel.
documentclass[varwidth, preview]{standalone}
usepackage[spanish]{babel}
% Due to a bug in Babel 3.22, we must override the OpenType
% language and script features for Japanese, and several other
% languages.
babelprovide[language=Japanese, script=Kana]{japanese}
% Implicitly causes babel to load fontspec:
babelfont[japanese]{rm}{Noto Sans CJK JP}
% Implicitly loads fontenc with [T1]:
usepackage[poorman]{fourier}
begin{document}
¿Es foreignlanguage{japanese}{日本} Utopía?
end{document}
Permuting the order in which you load packages can give you many different bugs.
To fix this, load luainputenc
, which, despite the misleading name, also allows switching between Unicode and legacy encodings on output:
documentclass[varwidth, preview]{standalone}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{textcomp}
usepackage[utf8]{luainputenc} % Needed to mix NFSS and Unicode
usepackage[spanish]{babel}
usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
defaultfontfeatures{ Scale = MatchUppercase }
newfontfamilyjapanesefont{Noto Serif CJK JP}[
Language = Japanese,
Script = Kana ]
newcommandtextjapanese[1]{{japanesefont #1}}
usepackage[poorman]{fourier}
begin{document}
¿Es textjapanese{日本} Utopía?
end{document}
In particular, one problem with the first sample is that loading fontenc
without luainputenc
sets all non-ASCII characters inactive.
