Defect Report

The Syloti Nagari character ꠜ (bh) looks too similar to ꠘ (n). The character ꠖ (d) should be nicely connected to the diacritic ꠥꠥ (u).
(Actually in most Sylheti handwritings, the diacritic on all consonants is not connected, but since in this font the diacritics is connected, it should work nicely for ꠖ)
The diacritic of "e": ꠦ should be unconnected to the consonants, similar to the diacritic ꠂꠂ, as in ꠔꠂ, so not connected like ꠔꠦ.. same for the diacritic ꠧ, it should be unconnected. Mostly a different shape of the letter ꠀ "A" is used, but that's perhaps Unicode's job, though it can be added in the non horizontal line font. Shown in the screenshots. I will highlight if needed.

The ꠜ (bh) is in the 5th line of consonants. The unconnected diacritic of "e" is in the last line as "ke" ꠇꠦ. Also notice the unconnected "u" diacritic in both images.

Here in the 7th line you can see the "bh" with diacritic "u".

Defect Report

Many characters in the Noto sans Syloti Nagri font are wrong or not in order.

Date: 2019-03-25

Font Version

The current one available on GitHub.

Issue

As shown in the image below, some characters need improvements. An alternative glyph for the character "A" is needed, the alternative form is more common and less confusing with the character "RO". The shape of the character "I" should be improved, the top part.
Now the consonants.
"TTHO" should be like "6" as in the image. The "DDHO" should also look different. The "DO" 's bottom part should be longer. The "DHO" should have an alternative form. The "NO"'s front part should be connected little bit billow from the top of the vertical line. The "BHO" should be improved, it looks too similar to the "NO" in the current font. The "LO" should have an alternative form. The "SHO" also needs improvements.
Now the diacritics.
The "E", "DVISVARA" and the top part of the vowel sign "OO" should be separated from the horizontal line. And the "U" diacitic should be separate from the letters and it should be longer also.
The "DU" (DO + U diacitic) should be like in the image.
Will talk about the conjunct consonants issue later when they are supported.

Several letters of Syloti (e.g. Ko U+A807) are poorly hinted in Windows 10 (GDI rendering).

I also tried unhinted font, but no pixel was changed.

Font Version

OS name and version

Windows 10 20H2

Application name and version

Probably all applications with GDI rendering. Specially seen in Qt 6.1.2, default Tahoma font, <font size='+2'>

Issue

1. Disable ClearType. Put a label to a Qt Creator form, content is <font face='Noto Sans Syloti Nagri' size='+2'>ꠇ</font>
2. Legs are both 1 and 2 px
3. Strokes should be either 1px or 2px. I’d prefer 1px.
4. Char ꠇ A807. I also tried unhinted font, but no pixel was changed.

Char ꠇ A807

Screenshot

There’s mostly Russian/Tahoma here, so you see problems in Syloti letters that are bigger than Russian ones.

(If you wonder what’s written here: Ordinary Brahmic abugida with inherent vowel “o” and virama (hasanta): K=ko, KA=ka, K^=k. Other variant of virama exists, K=k, like in other Brahmic scripts. Starting vowels are different letters. Doubled consonants and some conjuncts form ligatures: KK=kko, KT=kto. Typing these ligatures is standard: 1st letter, virama, 2nd letter. Text hangs from a common line, but, unlike [Devanagari], “holds” it tightly. // Text is written LTR, but Syloti books, as a tribute to Islam, are bound RTL.)
