2022-08-31 Thread Denis Maier via ntg-context
Hi, I’m running into something weird with Hebrew punctuation. Consider the example below. SBL Hebrew gives me incorrect results when there’s a vaw with a holam = וֹ just before a chet with a patach = חַ => the patach below the chet ist misplaced. If I remove the holam from the vaw, everything

This seems to have broken in my latest upgrade. The diacriticals (vowels) are no longer centered under the Hebrew lettes. They are now misaligned again. Also, the script=hebr option in definefontfeature now generates an error (see the original code in the second message). The following code

I am new to ConTeXt and very impressed. Much thanks to Hans Hagen and Idris Samawi Hamid for an excellent introduction. I am using the Hebrew Ezra SIL Hebrew Unicode Fonts. My question concerns the placement of the Hebrew vowel points (niqqud). For most letters, the vowel points are placed

Thank you. The unicode text looked good (although reversed left-to-right as I sent it) in my sent mail, and it looked perfect (corrected right-to-left) in your response. But it did not look good in the digest email (all the letters were convered to ?'s). Also it's typesetting fine in ConTeXt
