Open arky opened 9 years ago

Please add support for Armenian unicode (range: 0530–058F) characters in Fira

Is there a compelling reason to add Armenian to Fira, as opposed to shipping a separate Armenian font family?

Let me quote community member Aleksey a.k.a Xelgen comment about this " We can use different font, and there are better free alternatives then Noto (separate Armenian font), but based on multiple cases this is undesired option, leading to only fraction of users using localised version. Also with lengthy Armenian strings, changing font later after release may requre to recheck how every string is displayed. So having Armenian glyps in Fira, or separate but Fira based Armenian font, is much more prefered option. "

We'll put this on the road map.
