Noto KR rendering inconsistency in Google Chrome #271

Closed rawnsley closed 7 months ago

rawnsley commented 7 months ago

I happened upon two versions of the same Korean unicode string: 인스타 and 인스타. As you can see from the unicode inspector the first uses multiple codes per character from the Hangul Jamo block whereas the second uses a single code per character from Hangul Syllables.

The weirdness is when they are rendered in page alongside other characters, as you can see when I tested the following in Google Fonts:

인스타 abc 인스타 인스타 123 인스타

...renders as...

I'm assuming it is a bug in the browser render engine rather than the font, but this seemed like the right place to start the escalation process.

Definitely looks like a browser bug and this isn't the place to report that. The font seems fine in other places using harfbuzz.

I've submitted a Chrome bug report and I will update if I hear anything.
