adamtwar Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 In the release notes for Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.0.19988), you say "Implemented OpenType GPOS support". Could you be more specific? I just tested Arial Version 5.01.2x with the text "ną̊́n" (U+006E U+0061 U+030A U+0301 U+0328 U+006E), which utilizes the font’s built-in "mark" and "mkmk" GPOS features, which should normally be on by default. Here is an image showing how the text is rendered in Affinity Designer, Apple TextEdit (OS X 10.10), Microsoft Word 2011 and Adobe Illustrator 2014.1. As you can see, in all the apps except Affinity Designer, the diacritical marks are attached at their correct positions, thanks to the GPOS positioning done by "mark" and "mkmk". In Designer, it looks like the GPOS features are not at all applied. Regards, Adam Twardoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dave Harris Posted November 1, 2014 Staff Share Posted November 1, 2014 There are still parts of GPOS we don't implement, but the ones used by latin scripts should be covered, and I have tested with examples like the one you give. I'll check this when I get back into work next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
