ISSUE-428: Definition of identical glyph
Definition of identical glyph
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- TTML IMSC 1.0
- Raised by:
- Glenn Adams

- 2015-09-21
- Description:
- The definition of identical glyph use in section 9.5 is not adequate in the general case in which glyph mapping process is context sensitive. For example 'f' and 'i' may map to a ligature glyph for font F0 but to distinct glyphs for font F1. Similarly, for Arabic text and other complex scripts, the glyph mapping process is based on the font's GSUB tables and the set of active features and language bindings.

Ok. Nevertheless, would you expect the definition of identical glyph to hold 1%, 10% or 90% of the time?
Pierre-Anthony Lemieux, 21 Sep 2015, 21:05:32It depends on the script in use. For Arabic script usage, perhaps 1%; for Indic script usage, perhaps 20%, for Roman script usage, perhaps 80-95%.
