Hello Mahaveer,
thanks for your proposal. However, can you please tell us what
exactly you want to improve? FreeType is a glyph rendering library;
usually, it takes a *glyph index* (and not a Unicode character) as an
input and returns a bitmap rendering of a glyph's outline. Handling
Unicode-encoded input strings *must* be done in a higher-level library
like 'HarfBuzz' – we are definitely not going to add such
capabilities.
Only a very small part, namely the auto-hinter, processes a font's
Unicode character map table to gather more knowledge for hinting
glyphs. Improving this part was a GSoC project of the last year (see
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype/freetype/-/merge_requests/316)
