Hi All,
I am trying to set some text in Hebrew with diacritical marks, and whenever there is a diacritical that's supposed to come in the middle of a letter, all the marks are coming off misaligned, right after the glyph rather than in the middle of it (or wherever they're supposed to be).

I've attached a ConTeXt and Gimp output using the same font, Ezra SIL.

Here is the code:

  \definefontfeature
    [hebrew] [
      mode=node,
      expansion=quality,
      protrusion=quality,
      language=dflt,
      script=hebr,
      liga=yes,
      rlig=yes,
      dlig=yes,
      clig=yes,
      mark=yes,
      mkmk=yes,
      kern=yes
      ]

  \starttypescript [serif] [ezrasil]
    \definefontsynonym	[Ezra-SIL-Regular]	[name:ezrasil]	[features=hebrew]
    \definefontsynonym	[Ezra-SIL-Bold]		[name:ezrasil]	[features=hebrew]
    \definefontsynonym	[Ezra-SIL-Italic]	[name:ezrasil]	[features=hebrew]
    \definefontsynonym	[Ezra-SIL-Bold-Italic]	[name:ezrasil]	[features=hebrew]
  \stoptypescript

  \starttypescript [serif] [ezrasil] [name]
    \definefontsynonym	[Serif]           	[Ezra-SIL-Regular]	[features=hebrew]
    \definefontsynonym	[SerifItalic]     	[Ezra-SIL-Italic]	[features=hebrew]
    \definefontsynonym	[SerifBold]       	[Ezra-SIL-Bold]	[features=hebrew]
    \definefontsynonym	[SerifBoldItalic] 	[Ezra-SIL-Bold-Italic][features=hebrew]
  \stoptypescript

      \definetypeface	[Hebrew]	[rm][serif][ezrasil]	[default] [features=hebrew]

\textdir TRT\pardir TRT\bodydir TRT\pagedir TRT

  \usetypescript   [Hebrew]
  \setupbodyfont   [Hebrew, 12pt]
  
\starttext
בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ
\stoptext

Thanks for your help.
