<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Well I phrased it
wrongly and am sorry for that. By referring to the problems pertaining
to halant, anuswar, chandrabindu and stuff, I meant to imply that the
standards pertaining to these would be used in the tool which we want to
create! I havent faced any such issue in the existing fonts like
MANGAL.ttf, kruti dev etc. because they are well tried and tested.<br>
</div>I was referring to the new fonts which the user wishes to contribute, and which needs testing! <br></div>Taking the example of <a href="http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/views/View_JanaMarathi.html" target="_blank">http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/views/View_JanaMarathi.html</a><br>
</div>1. The kha letter does not have a proper curvature, at the lower lefthand corner. <br></div>2.
The ae ki matra on the letter kha is too straight, ie straight as
halant, this would not only confuse a newcomer into the devnagri script.<br>
</div>3. Also there is lack of uniformity in the manner in which matras
are applied to the various consonants. for rg the choti e ki matra has
no joining with the upper line, while the o ki matra has a joining.<br></div>4.
The conjugation of half ka and full ka also doesnt seem to be
appropriate. the joining line is too straight, it needs curve a bit to
make it look like there is real conjugation.<br>
</div>5. The letter ka also does not look nice, as the two sections on either side of the middle line seems to be unrelated<br><br></div>Based on the standards set by expert linguists, we can make a tool similar to fontQA.<br>
</div>As far as how should we go about making the tool.<br></div>I have a doubt, when you said we could also extend fontQA with rule sets does that mean creating fontQA testsuites?<div class=""><div id=":1by" class="" tabindex="0">
