Subject: improving kannada script
Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2018 10:17:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1ldi5572x063$.dlg@nililand.de> (raw)

According to the xelatex output in the following example both
variants are not correct. What would be needed would be the first
two glyphs from variant 1 (knd2 script) and the third from variant 2
(knda script).

Pictures comparing the output can be found at
https://github.com/u-fischer/luaotfload/issues/20

(Disclaimer: I have no idea if xelatex/harfbuzz is correct here, but 
https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/457427/2388 says so).

\definefontfeature
  [kannada-testA]
  [indic-common]
  [script=knd2,
   % basic shaping
   pref=yes,
   blwf=yes,
   half=yes,
   pstf=yes,
   cjct=yes
   ]
\definefontfeature

   ]
