Kauśika,

I've been following this thread and the related critical edition
thread
with some interest. I'm wondering, how have you found the new
input/translation method with "Shobhika Regular," a font a few of us
might be keen to use?


Best, Richard

Unfortunately some fonts don't work properly in ConTeXt. Noto Sans
Devanagari 
is one of them. The accompanying serif font (Noto Serif Devanagari)
works just 
fine (mostly, there are problems with that as well). 

In this specific case, there does not seem to be any fix (at least
that I could 
find).

I am trying to test many fonts and come up with a list of fonts which
work, 
partially work, don't work, etc. and fixes wherever possible.

kauśika
