santhosh,
thanks for update
chill characters are from 7A to 7F so if we are not supporting those characters
we can simply keep blank at those position
but adding shape Ⓡ which has different unicode value U+24c7 in those places
make this font Unicode incompatible
u+ 0d44
u+ 0d62
u+ 0d63
U+ 0d70 - wrong shape
U+ 0d71
U+ 0d72
U+ 0d73
U+ 0d74
U+ 0d75
also above are some more places where unicode has given shapes then also meera
has Ⓡ sign there
this is wrong
and it makes it unicode incompatible (some out of these are added in Unicode
5.1 in that case only blank is require)
IMHO we do not need to put R shapes in Reserved spaces as those code point are
already not implemented in any application (pango, qt), typing is also not
allowed for those characters and adding those shapes in font increasing its
size unnecessarily
i think there is no harm in removing those shapes from font
It will be very good if we can say Meera font is Unicode 5.0 compatible :)
