Request to expand more glyphs

Open WanAhmadShahmi98 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

I would like to propose another five Unicode characters to be included in the typeface. These characters are used in Jawi script.

‎ ڠ U+06A0 Arabic Letter Ain with Three Dots Above ‎ ڽ U+06BD Arabic Letter Noon with Three Dots Above ‎ ۏ U+06CF Arabic Letter Waw with Dot Above ‎ ٴ U+0674 Arabic Letter High Hamza ‎ ݢ U+0762 Arabic Letter Keheh with Dot Above

Jawi script is used to write Malay language in many parts in Southeast Asian region, mostly in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Thailand, and Indonesia.

Hi, Can you send me some sample words that include these characters? I can include the new characters in the typeface but the final online update is in the hands of other people. Let me know please.

I made a sentence that include all the letters mentioned:

باݢيندا تيدق ممڤوڽاٴي اڤ٢ کچندروڠن ترهادڤ اينديۏيدو ايت

And this is how it would appear in these example typefaces: 20220309_234932

The Modern Malay (Latin) spelling would be Baginda tidak mempunyai apa-apa kecenderungan terhadap individu tersebut. This text sample means "He (a royalty) does not have any inclination towards him".

The letters ‎ݢ, ‎ڽ, ‎ڠ, and ‎ۏ looks disconnected. They should appear joined as showned in the picture in previous comment
