[~tilman] For Devanagari, the missing top horizontal bar in the third glyph of
first word in Mangal is by design:
!Screenshot from 2023-12-07 20-46-25.png!
You can see it's also present in Lohit-Devanagari, Baloo, Biryani and Hind
fonts.
The fact that rkrf feature isn't present in Lohit Devanagari and Mangal, led to
the creation of createRKRF, given vatu was present. But things are opposite in
Noto Sans Devanagari. Maybe that's why it won't work in Noto Sans Gujarati as
well. Devanagari GsubWorker needs improvement.
For Gujarati, the repositionGlyphs function is running from index 3, that's why
the beforeHalfGlyphIds isn't positioning arc vowel ({*}ि{*}) to the starting
consonant (શ). Changing the starting index to 1 will fix that.
Also, this arc vowel ({*}ि{*}) should also be substituted with wider arc vowel
glyph (Noto Sans Gujarati present at index 404 called ivowelsigndefaultgujr) if
its following glyphs are half+consonant, and should happen in applyGsubFeature.
I'll try by running repositionGlyphs before applyGsubFeature maybe it'll
capture the substitution condition that way.
By FCFS, I mean in Language.java, if the first enum is DEVANAGARI(new
String[]\{"dev2", "deva"}), Nirmala UI will select DEVANAGARI, even if the text
is in Bengali or Gujarati.
Will there by GPOS feature in the future? There are GPOS features such as kern,
dist, abvm, blwm which needs to be implemented.
* I'll provide you test codes for GsubWorkerForDevanagariTest.java. I'd like
to provide input data from Lohit-Devanagari as well as Noto Sans Devanagari, as
they're SIL.
* I haven't checked TestFontEmbedding.testBengali(). I'll check it out.
