2.004 is the latest version; we don't always onboard to Google Fonts immediately, it can take some time. I will check that these sequences work in 2.004
simoncozens thank you for the fast reply.
The sequences work correctly in 2.004; you talked about a merger script, so the problem might be with that script. I don't think there's an issue with the font.
While I agree this is most likely an issue with the merge script, note that this affects your releases as well. The 2.004 version from notofonts.github.io repo exhibits the issue. The 2.003 version from fonts.google.com seems to be immune to whatever the script does to it.
OK, I see the problem. This is broken in the 2.004 release but it is fixed in the latest development builds. We need a new release, which I'll try and do soon.
This version latest development builds.
Version numbers are bumped on release. I'll look into the hinting issue.
Confirm this version latest development builds. is working as expected.
OK, found it. The source file for Noto Sans Balinese contained a "ttfautohint options" custom parameter, so fontmake thought it should autohint everything.

Issue
The version of the font downloaded from the site is 2.003 The version of the font dowloaded from the repo is 2.004.
The shaping results are different using Word on Windows 11. Windows 11: Word: Noto Sans Balinese 2.004
Windows 11: Word: Noto Sans Balinese 2.003
Copy paste following text in Word. "ᬩ᭄ᬬᬶᬳ" "ᬩᬵᬳ"
Character data
"ᬩ᭄ᬬᬶᬳ" "ᬩᬵᬳ"
I think the issue is with the merger script. When I merge the v2.003 with another font. I get overlapping results as shown in the image above.
