There are ligatures but just small form.

Ligatures K+V, K+SZ, V+V, J+I (or I+J, I not remember exactly) must be remove from the discrete ligatures, because these are used for letter QU, X, W, and Y. In Hungarian spelling, for example VV not same with W.

@simoncozens I added capital ligatures to this font, defined these ligatures full and semicapital "activator". Semicapital definition is useful because of that it has no req pressing twice shift key or not need use caps lock.

May I develop more ligs according to Issue https://github.com/notofonts/old-hungarian/issues/17#issue-1746702045 ?

https://github.com/notofonts/old-hungarian/issues/16#issue-1746689358 is done, too.

I do not download it before answer my question in this comment.

@simoncozens May I ask You to prepare this Issue? This may not be important to you, but it is to the LibreOffice project.

@simoncozens Already exist Old Hungarian keyboard layout with ZWJ key in keyman.com projekt (multiplatform) and in xkeyboard-config projekt (for Linux distros). In other words, there aren't problems with ligs.

@simoncozens @davelab6 @fabiocaccamo I were thinking, what the main problem of developing the capital ligs.

The main promblem is that, capital symbols floats. How can we draw capital ligs if we have no baseline to follow? We have to define it.

Obviously, the lower and upper case letters of a baseline help. I am working on it.
