(ARABIC) Mark Positioning
Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2018 1:33 am
Hi to all!!
I'm currently working on custom Arabic fonts.
Query: How to position every mark for every character/glyph differently?
There are around 16 marks in the Arabic language and every mark positioning is different from other and even for every character it is different and in ligatures it is more different positioning.
I tried 3 under character marks (kasra, kasratan and alef subscript) and positioned it in the OpenType Designer. I locked the mark with the option and tried for all the simple glyphs. it was done, and it worked well.
However, when I was trying for the above character marks I observed that the mark is positioned as before and changing it reflected on the different positioning on the previous under character marks.
The height of every character/glyph is different and the position of every mark for every character is also different, How to do this?
Please help me out.
Thank You.
