Hi,

all rendering problems seem fixed now. Many thanks.

I do have problems with GPOS lookups, but that's probably due to a bug in my 
font. The problem with missing fonts is fixed as well.

I did find a couple more reph-related bugs, both not very important. The first 
happens in syllables of the following form:

ra   + halant + [any consonant] + halant + ba
09B0   09CD      e.g. 09A4        09CD     09AC

This should be rendered as 

[ consonant + (below base form of ba) ] + reph

instead, it's rendered as 

[ consonant + (below base form of ba) ] + ra-phala

This doesn't happen when 'ba' is replaced by some other consonant, so this 
seems related to the special below base property of 'ba'.



The other bug is sort of the converse of this. I'm not even sure if it's a 
bug, only that it's different from both MS and Yudit. And I haven't been able 
to think of a real example of this. It happens with syllables like 

[consonant] + halant + ba + halant + ra

which is rendered as 

half-consonant + (ba + raphala)

when it should be 

(consonant-baphala) + raphala

A test file, along with what it should look like, is attached.
