Hi Ajith, I don’t have any idea about Malayalam (or any other Indic language [I can deal with Latin and Greek scripts only, I’m afraid]), but this seems to work fine. \mainlanguage[ml] \definefontfamily [malayalam] [rm] [RIT Rachana] [features=malayalam-two] \setupbodyfont [malayalam] \starttext \tf അദ്ധ്യായം\\ \em അദ്ധ്യായം\\ \bf അദ്ധ്യായം\\ \em അദ്ധ്യായം \stoptext Fonts are RIT Rachana from http://www.rachana.org.in/. The relevant feature here malayalam-two. I used serif (or rm), since the font looked to me more serif than sans-serif (Latin glyphs are clearly from a serif font). > The expected form is show in libre office with the same text and font, > attached as an image I would say that with malayalam-two ligatures are the same ones as in LibreOffice.
