Re: "RTL rendering broken with noto-emoji from skyjake.fi/fonts/..."

In: s/Lagrange-Issues

If you disable everything except macos-system-fonts and notosans-set, and set your fonts to Roboto/Roboto, does the Arabic then render correctly?

It is rendering correctly on my Mac with Literata and notosans-set.

From your primer:

Consecutive whitespace like spaces, tabs, or blank lines wonʼt be compacted into one.

This is incorrect. The spec says only newlines should be preserved as-is. Other types of whitespace can be normalized as the client sees fit.

The culprit is noto-emoji

Hmm, something in there must be affecting the glyph lookup order.

I added some RTL text to my Gemini Visual Primer page, which doesn't render correctly, even though the fonts are able to do this. [gemini link] Visual Gemtext Primer (scroll to the bottom) The character not being correctly rendered is an alef, I've been told. Here a screenshot: Used environment: Lagrange 1.16.1 on macOS 13.4, rendered with either Inter or Noto Sans fonts. The Noto Sans font package is the large noto-sans-set (43.5 MB) provided by Lagrange. Noto Sans renders this correctly in...
