Description Behnam Esfahbod 2008-04-09 22:04:55 UTC 
Attached is a screen-shot of U+0619 ARABIC SMALL DAMMA.

This is a transparent character, not is not shaped like ascii "W". Behdad, any idea where the problem is?

Also seems UCD files has new syntax for comments, here Notes section, which makes the link and it's following text look bad.  Any idea what to do in this situations?

U+0618 ARABIC SMALL FATHA

U+0618 ARABIC SMALL FATHA, which should not be shaped as "G".
Comment 2 Behdad Esfahbod 2008-04-15 16:47:50 UTC 
No idea.
Comment 3 Christian Persch 2008-07-08 19:56:44 UTC 
Shouldn't this be re-assigned to pango ?
Comment 4 Behdad Esfahbod 2008-07-09 03:29:12 UTC 
Behnam, can you reproduce this with pango-view?
Comment 5 Christian Persch 2008-07-09 07:58:00 UTC 
pango-view --text="ؙ" (U+0619) shows the problem too -> pango.
Comment 6 Behdad Esfahbod 2008-07-09 09:31:10 UTC 
Can't reproduce here.  Can you figure out which buggy font it's using?  Use pmap.
Comment 7 Christian Persch 2008-07-09 10:20:14 UTC 
Interstingly, it chooses FreeSansBold (from ttf-freefont 20060501cvs-12 on hardy). Updating to ttf-freefont 20080323-3 'fixes' it, gucharmap and pango-view now show only a hexbox.
