Fix ugly kerning in equation subscript
I'm beautifying some HW solutions for the upcoming semester, and came across a kerning issue
documentclassarticle
usepackageamsmath
begindocument
[C_in C_out C_eff]
enddocument
The output:
The "in" and "out" subscripts look fine, but "eff" seems very spread out. Is there a quick fix?

That’s because theeff
is interpreted ase times f times f
, and the same goes forin
andout
. So you should either use themathit
by @Sebastiano in the answer, ormathrm
, ortext
, etc.

In math-mode you should to use mathit...
(slanted} or mathbf...
(bold) or normal mathrm...
for any type of the text into math formula.

+1 I would recommend mathrm since eff is rather a label (short for effective) and not a variable (e times f times f). At least this is the convention that I am aware of.

Alternatively, you can usetext
from theamsmath
package. But there are different opinions about this: tex.stackexchange.com/questions/70632

Another alternative,operatorname
, is good if you ever need to setin
,out
oreff
next to some other identifier. That formats and spaces it like the word log or sin.
