-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 This is a rendering issue, not an input issue. My guess is that pango / QT / LibreOffice are of fault here. Freetype should be able to support variation selectors, but this needs to be confirmed. Pango is used for GTK+ applications, LibreOffice comes with its own rendering engine. Let me do some research here, I'll post the results. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/

For Mongolian, I've installed the ttf-manchufont package. For Phags-pa, I've used the font available here: http://babelstone.blogspot.com/2006/12/phags-pa- shaping-behaviour.html Both languages use the Unicode Variation Selectors. In a nutshell, the combination character + variation selector should change the representation of the character to a different variant. See the table of Standardised Unicode variants here: http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/StandardizedVariants.html The expected behavior does not work in any of the packages I've tried (gedit, gimp and OpenOffice). Instead, the variation selector remains as it's own character and the preceding character is unmodified (see attachment). This is NOT an issue with the fonts because: a. The fonts have the appropriate substitutions defined, as can be observed by editing the fonts in e.g. fontforge. b. The expected behavior happens in WIndows 7 using these fonts. This is an issue with whatever package handles Unicode glyph substitution.
