both font at attachment 472591 [details] this is correct. > any how is this related with this one bug #654200 ? I dont know, the from the description at bug 654200 comment 0 it appear as issue in the input. Bug 668351 is an issue in rendering. <out of topic> bug #654200 occurred due to we missed an historic letter 0D3A when we first made unicode, and started using 0D31 instead as case by case. If we redo Unicode, we should have followed rules from http://www.malayalamresourcecentre.org/Mrc/literature/keralapaanineeyam/panineeyam.html ie, symbols both for both 0D30 and 0D31 behave same, only difference it should make is when displayed as full letter. And use 0D3A when sound "t" in English words "Tea, tight" was indented. http://unicode.org/charts/PDF/Unicode-6.0/U60-0D00.pdf 0D3A MALAYALAM LETTER TTTA 0D30 MALAYALAM LETTER RA 0D31 MALAYALAM LETTER RRA </out of topic>

Ani, can you try to reproduce same on fedora 14? i will try on rawhide once
Created attachment 491681 [details] comparison of text with raghu, lohit and anjali fonts I discussed this thing with Ani. It works proper in Rawhide and F15 with libreoffice-writer-3.3.2.2-5.fc15.x86_64
thanks Biju for reporting this bug, it looks like now it is working properly on rawhide so closing this. Do reopen if there is still any rendering problem.
