Circularcond Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Hello, I'm a Type Designer from Thailand, using Affinity Designer for my typeface specimen. So, sorry for my English! In Thai language, we have vowels. In Thai fonts, we use OpenType features such as ligature or mark to make fonts work and display correctly. So, Affinity Designer works perfectly for Thai fonts in 1.6.5 Check my image, that is the position of marks supposed to be, Check my attached video, that is an issue I've found. It happens when I'm using 1.7 Thank! Desktop 2019.06.21 - 14.23.50.02.mp4 Edited June 21, 2019 by Circularcond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted June 24, 2019 Staff Share Posted June 24, 2019 Hi Circularcond, Welcome to the Affinity Forums! Unfortunately this is a known issue that is with development to be improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netera Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Is this still an issue? Is it for all fonts with diacritic marks? I am trying to place Unicode text from word doc with diacritic marks. its a real nightmare - does super weird things inside Publisher, even graphically distorts the tool box, very odd. Is this being looked at, as its a pretty common thing to place fonts with marks, European languages etc. For now I am having to retype and then manually re-apply the marks. See sample attached. As you can see it places some, while replacing others with pretty little boxes :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
