Jan Tošovský commented on FOP-2371:
-----------------------------------
I use default fop settings (with <auto-detect/> tag) so complex script features
should be enabled. Kern pairs are present in the font and it works fine in e.g.
XEP or ConTeXt (luaTeX). This led me to the conclusion it is just FOP issue.
The peculiarity of this font is the lack of glyph names. Various font libraries
builds these missing names using a different logic which can be demonstrated on
dotlessi glyph used for small caped variant of 'i' character. While some
engines renders it corectly as dotless i, others incorrectly as dotted i.
If missing glyph names is the issue, I am curious why the kerning is not
disabled completely. Now it works at least for the AV pair.
> Kerning is applied only to certain combinations
