Hello Scott
Using my personal build of HarfBuzz [HB_VERSION_STRING "0.9.16"]
--- built as a .lib with Visual Studio 2008
[I have not compiled it with ICU support]
--- running under Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
--- tahoma.ttf version 3.011 (as reported by FontLab Studio)
I ran your sample string through HarfBuzz and saw the following list of
glyphs
returned by Harfbuzz with names as reported using FreeType's
FT_Get_Glyph_Name(...) function
uni0654
uni0647.fina
uni0645.medi
uni06BE.fina
uni0654
uni06BE.fina
uni0645.medi
uni06BE
Just an observation that the glyph uni0654 is classified as a mark but
it has (in the above version of Tahoma) a non-zero width of 512 em-units
--- not zero, like most Arabic mark glyphs.
Best
Graham
NB: Just for completeness, I'm using/testing HarfBuzz with Lua as an
add-in for LuaTeX.
