Issue

When the letters "ndra" are rendered as one glyph, the anudatta is overlapping with the half-ra on the right hand side.

For context, the word I am writing is "tadinra" తదిన్ద్ర॒:

It might be fixed by placing the half-ra on the left, like the Mandali font does. (Mandali also suffers from a different overlapping problem.)

Character Data

I'm not sure how best to provide the Unicode mappings, but one way of recreating the text is by using Aksharamukha

input Roman ITRANS: tadindra\_ output: తదిన్ద్ర॒

Tiro puts the anudatta under the compound, which I think is the right approach here. I'll try and do that.
