Believe this mishandling of the Arial TTF is an OpenGL composition issue. 

Disable OpenGL and the Arial combined diacritics will stack. 

But, the Graphite based glyphs composed with Uniscribe on Windows are corrupt even with OpenGL disabled. Unreadable when it is enabled.

Graphite fonts don't go through the Uniscribe code path at all.

So is this a Linux or Windows bug? Metadata says Linux, but comments talk about Windows.

I guess here it is best to disregard any talk about Windows and really treat this as a Linux specific bug, as that is what the initial bug submission says. It even says the corresponding thing works fine on Windows.

combining diacritics on Windows Arial not correct with OpenGL

@Tor,  no stacking/combining diacritics not work for Arial on Windows if OpenGL is enabled.

See the two attachments I'm adding.  Arial is incorrect on Windows when OpenGL enabled and one where Arial is correct on Windows when OpenGL is disabled.

Comment 10 martin_hosken 2015-12-18 08:38:06 UTC
There are two bugs here.

1. OpenGL causing diacritics to shift even for non-Graphite fonts.
2. Graphite on Windows having diacritics shift at zooms below something silly due to a bug in GDI.

I suggest we make this bug be about the OpenGL problem. We're working on that one and just need to get D2D to play ball.

The OpenGL issue with "stacking" of glyphs does affect all OS.

On Windows with

OpenGL issue remains.

With OpenGL enabled, the non-Graphite fonts (so the Uniscribe composition on Windows) remains garbled when glyphs are combined. (Checked Arial and Liberation Sans).  Disabling OpenGL permits the glyps to stack correctly.

Things have improved for the Graphite fonts, where stacking glyphs as combined diacritics appear the same with or without OpenGL active--the stacking remains incorrect in either mode, but they are now consistent and at the same scale. (Checked Linux Biolinum G and Linux Libertine G).

So again, is this a Windows or Linux bug or both? I can’t reproduce this on Linux with or without OpenGL.

combining diacritics on Windows -- with default Graphics

Going to call this Windows only. Handling the combined diacritics are really ugly with OpenGL rendereing enabled in a recent build of 5.3.0 master. But also with default graphics the combined diacritics do not stack--so some font layout issues in both WinLayout and SimpleWinLayout.

See new clips of the sample test file--attachment 121043 [details] with current 5.3.0 master.
Comment 15 ⁨خالد حسني⁩ 2016-10-19 22:59:01 UTC
No handling mark stacking correctly on Windows is expected since we do not currently do any OpenType layout for Latin script, and should be fixed with bug 89870.

The OpenGL bug seems to be completely unrelated and should be reported seperately if not already.
