Well, there is something missing that I just noticed, it's 0670 (Arabic Letter Superscript Alef), it works just fine when I use a tatweel below it (i.e. Al-Baqara 9) or there is a character that should be below it (i.e. Al-Baqara 7), but there are lots of places in the Qur'an where a tatweel cannot be used as that small alef is expected to be a standalone character not just a haraka like fatha or damma (Al-Baqara 22 word 5). There are already some characters that is very much like this situation, they solved it by using two characters, one is transparent like fatha and 0670 and the other is a standalone character (see 06E7 "works like 0670", 06E6 "we need a character like that for the small alef"). I'm proposing 0659 (Arabic Small Alef) to be used for the new glyph which is the same as 0670 but not transparent and lower. Nadim, everytime we say "yes, it's finished now" another thing pops out but I hope that there are no remaining issues _______________________________________________ General mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/general
