Yesterday I released version 0.010 of Amiri font, codenamed Referendum :) Just a minor release, no big changes:

  • New glyphs:
    • Lam with three dots below (U+06B8).
  • Kerning:
    • Lam of له with preceding Raa/Waw family.
    • Kaf of كتب as well.
  • Glyph fixes:
    • Fixed exclamation mark’s vertical position as compared to question mark.
    • Removed stray Hamza from U+063B and U+063C initial and medial forms.
    • Fixed the weight of isolated Dal, was much bolder than the rest of the font.
    • Fixed Lam Meem connection in لما, there was a slight mismatch.
    • Fixed the size of medial Ayn compared to the head of final one.
  • OpenType code:
    • Removed DFLT script from ‘locl’ feature which would cause it to be on unconditionally.
    • Got rid of mark sets in favour of the more widely supported mark classes.
