Keynote, Pages and Numbers got updated today. I still can't place the cursor between a Pulli (virama) and a consonant. I still have to rely on Notes and TextEdit for my Tamil text editing :( It has been years! करन मिश्र · Karan Miśra

South Asia is one of the most linguistically diverse places on this planet. At Typotheque we worked on supporting as many of these languages as possible. typotheque.com/blog/november-…

Devanagari fonts require different graphic variants of many characters and numerals to accommodate demographic and regional nuances. We’ve interviewed hundreds of people and documented readers preferences. typotheque.com/articles/regio…

Prepared a type specimen for Nupuram typeface. 40 pages of examples and illustrations. smc.gitlab.io/fonts/Nupuram/… Used html/css for this because web is the only reliable platform that supports color fonts and variable fonts. Support in other applications are still catching up.

Based on science and research, but written with the mastery of a skilled hand, Dash is a handwriting typeface system that makes full use of variable expression. typotheque.com/blog/dash-a-ty…

The dot above Tamil letter ப is, ‘pulli’, a non-spacing mark, positioned with GPOS. InDesign handles character space reduction well - but not Pages, TextEdit and Word. Bug or simply unsupported?

தொ - This is composed with த (U+0BA4) + ொ (U+0BCC). The two part vowel sign decomposes as ெ (U+0BC6) and ா (U+0BBE). CoreText accepts only this order but Harfbuzz accepts the vowel signs in the reverse order too. Which one is doing it right? HarfBuzz حرف‌باز Ned Holbrook

Saw this after my walk in the park today. What could have caused the கால் (vowel sign aa) in வெங்காயம் to drop down from the baseline 🤔

Dear YB Ganabatirau Veraman URGENT: Multiple sinkholes on Solok Pulai Klang have been left unrepaired for over a year despite numerous complaints to authorities. Our neighborhood roads are dangerous and neglected. Can you please help address this safety hazard YB?
