Do I need to worry that we are not using it and just using freetype? Complex text. Without Pango or Harfbuzz or ICU you won't properly display Arabic, Hebrew, Indic scripts, and strange combinations of more ordinary letters involving combining characters "m" plus "acute". CJK ought to work though. > We have the layout tests running but at this point we aren't running the pixel tests; is this necessary for the text rendering tests to show up issues or will we be hitting the necessary tests without them? Some layout tests may catch some of these issues, but you probably need pixels to verify the actual scripts come out ok. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
