Re: Brahmic scripts
Indic scripts do require the OS/application shaping to be compliant/capable of these moderately complex ltr languages (there are more complex ltr scripts). So there are required features and glyphs a Unicode Indic script has to have so the OS and applications' shaping can occur. (Even Western text r...

Re: Squaresh but 1 rounded side
Hello Sandra,
I have a feeling Lanauco had their logo/wordmark made. That text form doesn't appear on their website as text anywhere. They use a different font on the website and their communications.
Sorry. Mike

Re: Sukhumala • A Graceful Font for Body text
Hi BP--I just watched a YouTube video from Quark for the new dot release of QXP and noticed they were using this font to demonstrate a couple of the new added OT Features (one of which is afrc).

Re: Intelligent Quotes
I think this type of substitution should be handled at the user and/or application level. I.e., not by using OT features. However, calt might work. But I have a feeling the combination of calt being on by default + many/most applications having smart quotes enabled by default would prevent consisten...
