Look at my example from the previous post, compare the xetex (correct) and luatex (incorrect) output and suggest a simplification of the script so that it does not depart too much from current practice. Than persuade Microsoft to rewrite the Indic OpenType specification and Uniscribe and persuade all font vendors to redesign all Indic font according to the new specification. Do you think it is achievable?
(I can type the same text in MS Word, in OpenOffice, put it on the web, process it by good FO processor, the output will be correct, only luatex cannot do it.) > > -- > Ulrike Fischer > http://www.troubleshooting-tex.de/ > > > > -------------------------------------------------- > Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: > http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex -- Zdeněk Wagner http://hroch486.icpf.cas.cz/wagner/ http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
