I'm writing a document with the MinionPro font from Adobe using fontspec and XeLaTeX. Here is my MWE:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
\usepackage{MnSymbol}
\setmainfont{MinionPro-Regular}

\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}

\begin{document}
    Y'en \\
    l'ensemble \\
    L'ensemble
\end{document}

Output:

As you can see, in the first line, the space between Y and en is correct. Just above, l and ensemble are way too close between each other. It is even worst with a capital L. I can manage that with a \hspace, but is it a better, and more automatic way to handle this ?

For comparison, here is how it looks with the LaTeX default font:

  • @UlrikeFischer For some reason, solutions found in theses links work in my MWE, but not in my report. Anyway I will look around with this. Thank you. – Nakrule Mar 06 '18 at 09:22
  • @Nakrule "For some reason, solutions found in th..." this is exactly what happened to me today. Totally other issue, but same symptom: solution works with MWE, but not in main document. The problem is elsewhere, and I am weary of looking for it... – thymaro Mar 07 '18 at 17:24
