Summary: [kn_IN] Vowel Signs U and UU do not correctly attach
to many consonants in Lohit Kannada

Created attachment 588536

ODT and PDF for test-case
Description of problem:
While most other CONSONANT + VOWEL SIGN combinations in Lohit Kannada are
mapped to precomposed glyphs, there are no pre-composed glyphs for vowel signs
U and UU except for the consonants PA, PHA and VA (where the stroke for U/UU
needs to come from below the consonant rather than the normal right side of the
consonant).
While in most cases, by virtue of appropriate RSB and LSB values of the
consonant glyph and vowel sign glyph, the simple sequence of the two glyphs
creates an appropriate appearance, this leaves out several instances where the
glyphs do not overlap at all and hence appear disjointed. For a professional
appearance of the font, this should be fixed.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.5.1
How reproducible:
Input all possible sequences of Kannada consonants with vowel signs U and UU.
(See attached ODT for text. Use BabelMap
[http://www.babelstone.co.uk/software/babelmap.html] if you want the
codepoints.)
Actual results:
You can see (as in the attached PDF) that some consonants do not properly get
attached to the vowel signs U and UU.
Expected results:
All consonants should properly get attached to the vowel signs U and UU.
Additional info:
Consonants which are not properly joined with vowel sign U:
KA* NYA DDA DA BA RA SSA** RRA LLLA***
* = see at high magnification
** = may need separate precomposed glyph with some adjustment to shape of left
side of vowel sign
*** = so-called FA of Kannada Unicode
Consonants which are not properly joined with vowel sign UU:
Those already listed above for U, plus GHA and LLA, due to the shorter height
of the left-side ending node of this vowel sign.
I think in most cases appropriate kerning should solve the problem, except for
SSA + -U/-UU, GHA + -UU and LLA + -UU where separate glyphs would be advisable.
It is curious to note that DDA DA and BA are all disjointed whereas their
aspirated counterparts DDHA DHA and BHA which all have only an additional
notch-like stroke at the bottom are correctly joined with the vowel sign. I
think the LSB RSB values are carelessly allotted in some cases, unfortunately.
Other problems:
CU JU -- the pointed part on the left of the vowel sign U passes through the
consonants and comes out above (see carefully) -- actually *negative* kerning
is needed here so that the pointed part should only enter the consonant and not
again exit it.
(It seems this problem does not occur for vowel sign UU due to the shorter
height of the left-side ending node of this vowel sign which causes a problem
with GHA and LLA instead -- see above!)
Note:
Unfortunately I will not be able to provide a TTF patch for this as I am
already short of time on my official projects. Please take care of it. Thank
you!

fractions/symbols to be included in the Lohit Tamil
fonts

Lohit Tamil, Lohit Tamil Classical and Lohit Tamil Chart fonts with new
characters
Contributing new Tamil glyphs to Lohit Tamil family:
----------------------------------------------------
I have prepared a proposal to encode 62 characters for old Tamil fractions and
symbols to be encoded in Unicode. Seven of these are being proposed for the
Tamil BMP block and rest for a new Tamil Supplement block in the SMP.
For the glyphs required for the code chart I have largely devised new glyphs
based on existing Lohit Tamil glyphs under the derivative rights granted by the
OFL. Some glyphs which could not be derived, I created myself using Inkscape
and other tools.
I would like to donate all these glyphs to the Lohit project under the OFL for
eventual inclusion into the Lohit Tamil/Tamil Classical fonts. For now they may
be included in the PUA of an unofficial fork of the Lohit Tamil fonts. When
they are eventually encoded in Unicode, they may be officially mapped to the
new codepoints and included in the official distribution of the Lohit
Tamil/Tamil Classical fonts.
Using Lohit Tamil glyphs for Unicode code chart:
------------------------------------------------
In the proposal, I am also requesting the Unicode / ISO 10646 project editors
to use the Lohit Tamil font for the Unicode Tamil code charts (Tamil block, and
newly proposed Tamil Supplement block) because:
1) When the new characters are encoded and my glyphs used for the code chart,
it would look good to maintain stylistic uniformity in the code chart, and my
designed glyphs are stylistically like the Lohit Tamil glyphs as they are
mostly derived from them. So it would be good to use Lohit Tamil glyphs
throughout.
2) There are currently 72 Tamil characters in Unicode 6.1.0. The present
proposal almost doubles the number with 62 new characters. It would be a
significant and unnecessary effort for anyone else to duplicate my glyph design
work for so many characters to keep in with the current Tamil code chart font
style. So switching to Lohit Tamil for all glyphs is easier and advisable.
3) Personally I think the glyphs of Lohit Tamil are much "cleaner" than the
existing Tamil code chart font, and more representative of the nature and
beauty of the Tamil script.
4) The OFL already permits the use of the Lohit Tamil font (and its
derivatives) for any purpose, so there are (hopefully) no legal issues
pertaining which need to be cleared between Unicode and Red Hat (but of course,
IANAL).
I also sincerely request the cooperation of the Lohit / Fedora / Red Hat people
in permitting the Lohit Tamil glyphs to be used for the Unicode Tamil code
charts (i.e. for two blocks).
Fonts with new glyphs:
----------------------
I attach herewith a ZIP file containing three font files:
1) Lohit Tamil font, with newly proposed character glyphs mapped to the PUA.
2) Lohit Tamil Classical font, likewise.
3) Lohit Tamil Chart font, containing only glyphs required for the code chart
(for existing and new characters, totalling 134 in number, across two blocks
Tamil and Tamil Supplement) mapped to the existing and proposed characters for
convenience of Unicode / ISO 10646 editors.
Behaviour of new characters and requirement from the fonts' side:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
None of the newly proposed characters are combining characters in the sense of
combining marks. However, most of them are proposed for a new SMP Tamil block
and care might need to be taken for proper mapping so that on all platforms the
SMP characters are accessible.
There is only one sequence of characters which needs to ligate: TAMIL DIGIT ONE
௧ + TAMIL SIGN KALAM (which looks like TAMIL LETTER LLA ள) should always
ligate. I have also provided the ligature glyph after the glyphs for the
individual characters (mapped to PUA E03F) in the fonts 1 and 2 above. I have
not added any substitution mapping however as it is for now only temporarily in
the PUA.
Etcetera:
---------
It is my intention to submit the proposal within a week or so and I will
upload/link here a copy of the proposal.
If at all any changes are required to the set of glyphs as a result of any
feedback from scholars or other sources, I will upload fresh TTF font files.
I thank everyone, especially Pravin Satpute, for their support regarding this.

Summary: [te_IN] Add support for Telugu nakaarapollu and repha

Glyphs for Telugu nakaarapollu and repha
Telugu script has special form of vowelless NA called four-pronged
nakaarapollu. Strictly speaking nakaarapollu means nakaara + pollu=virama so
regular form of vowelless-NA న్ is also nakaarapollu but Telugu old grammarian
Brown has specifically called a distinct form as nakaarapollu.
The recommended model for getting Telugu nakaarapollu is NA + ZWJ + VIRAMA.
Please find more details in the document:
https://sites.google.com/site/jamadagni/files/utcsubmissions/11409-telugu-n…
Likewise Telugu script has old repha form which is not found in common usage in
current Telugu script. A modern-style Telugu font can allow user to select
old-style reph by using the sequence RA + VIRAMA + ZWJ + CONSONANT because the
plain RA + VIRAMA + CONSONANT would be presented as RA with sub-base form of
CONSONANT.
Please find more details in the document:
https://sites.google.com/site/jamadagni/files/utcsubmissions/12017-telugu-r…
These two documents have been approved by the UTC in the Feb 2012 meeting:
http://www.unicode.org/L2/L2012/12007.htm
<quote>
[130-A15] Action Item for Deborah Anderson, Editorial Committee: Update the
core specification text on Telugu nakaara-pollu based on input in document
L2/11-409.
[130-A16] Action Item for Deborah Anderson: Incorporate text on Telugu Reph
from L2/12-017 into the Telugu block description.
</quote>
It is requested to:
1) add the glyphs for nakaarapollu and repha to the Lohit Telugu font:
2) add substitution mapping of NA + ZWJ + VIRAMA to the nakaarapollu glyph
3) add requisite OT markups for repha glyph so that a compliant OT system can
recognize the repha glyph and render sequence of RA + VIRAMA + ZWJ + CONS using
that glyph.

Description of problem:
Glyphs in the Latin Ligature block (U+FB00 .. U+FB06), such as "fi" and "fl",
should have the OpenType 'liga' lookup features defined. That will allow text
renderers to automatically apply the ligature glyph.
Additionally, for completeness, the ligature caret horizontal positions should
be appropriately set for these glyphs.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Additional info:
You may need to solve bug #851790 first.
Also the "fi" (and "ffi" if existing) should exclude dotless-i
scripts/languages, e.g., Turkish.

Description of problem:
It is very good that Red Hat / Fedora takes steps to update Lohit fonts with
latest encoded Indic characters, especially Vedic characters included in
Devanagari Extended block. (See
https://www.redhat.com/archives/lohit-devel-list/2012-February/msg00011.html)
As a Sanskrit/Vedic scholar I very much welcome this. However, it would be even
greater if the separate Vedic characters that are encoded in the Vedic
Extensions block (http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1CD0.pdf) created in
Unicode 5.2 along with Devanagari Extended were also supported.
As Devanagari is the script mainly used for Sanskrit and especially Vedic
printings nowadays, it would be best to add the characters initially to the
Lohit Devanagari font so that it can combine properly with the Devanagari
characters.
If at all there is future demand for the glyphs to be added to the font of
another script (like Telugu etc which are also often used for Vedic texts in
those areas) the glyphs can easily be copied to those fonts in the future.
OpenType normally cannot join base characters from one font with combining
marks from a different font. So a separate Lohit Vedic font with purely Vedic
characters is not possible.
As the glyphs from the Vedic Extensions block have very simple shapes, it would
hopefully be easy to design those glyphs and add them to the fonts.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.5.1
How reproducible:
Install Lohit Devanagari 2.5.1 font.
Actual results:
The Devanagari-specific Vedic characters especially from the Devanagari
Extended block are available. The generic Vedic characters from the Vedic
Extensions block are not available.
Expected results:
It is desirable to have the generic Vedic characters from the Vedic Extensions
block also.
