Right. Was there in fact a 'mlym' spec ever? IIRC Malayalam was added when the new specs were designed. At any rate, you need to add a 'pref' table to the font that matches the sequence 'Ra,Halant' (for 'mlym') or 'Halant,Ra' (for 'mlm2'). You add that and the font works. We are not going to work around this. -- behdad http://behdad.org/ _______________________________________________ HarfBuzz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/harfbuzz
