Add a shaper module to switch jp* feature tags
Last modified: 2012-08-27 09:39:37 UTC
There are 4 feature tags for Japanese defined in OpenType specification, jp78[1], jp83[2], jp90[3] and jp04[4]. that would be nice to add a shaper module for Japanese to switch them for convenience and compatibility for Japanese character sets support. 1: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/features_fj.htm#jp78 2: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/features_fj.htm#jp83 3: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/features_fj.htm#jp90 4: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/features_fj.htm#jp04

I think you are already working on adding this to fontconfig, right? Anyway, we should fix this in fontconfig+harfbuzz. Closing obsolete here.
Yes, thanks for closing.
