The font issues are still not resolved. Gimp and PS handle Indic fonts better. Affinity's challenge is making our work too difficult. The language here is Telugu

in my system showing "adobe japanese single line composer" and not showing "Middle Eastern & South Asian Single-line Composer" option. due to this reason telugu letters not displaying properly in my illustrator. in Preference i checked "Show Asian OPtion". Please suggest me. Thanks in advance.
I am trying to add Telugu font to photoshop but it keeps displaying it with matras separated. I tried changing the text engine and changing the language to Telugu in the character window and selecting various Telugu fonts and the issue pertains. Please see how the text appears in the layer preview (appears correct) vs actual image. Thank you for your help.
If you have set the text engine to word ready and set the language with proper font it should work fine. What is your version of PS. I tested by copying over a telugu text from web and pasted it in PS and i see correct results(visually, don't know to read and write), you can confirm by looking at the following. My PS version is 21.1.3 on a MAC
Ligatures are not handled manually by the author but automatically substituted when met. Ligatures are advertised through a table in the font file. The document processor uses the table to detect the combinations and access the composite character.
If this does not work for conjuncts other than SHA/TA + RA, this means the ligature has not been included in the font. As there is no combining character shaped as a subjoined crescent, you have no manual workaround.

Hi, I have tried using the Font Manager, and Google Fonts plugin and Inserts plugin to insert Google font url to see if that will work. I am trying to get Mallanna font to work on my site: bibleprabodhalu.org
Hi Ruenel, Yes! This worked! I have 6 Tabs. Three are in English and three are in Telugu. So, how do I change this font: Mallanna, only to the tabs that has Telugu text in it, and leave the English content as is, with whatever font is assigned to it?
Please note: This document reflects the changes made in 2005 recommendations for Indic-script OpenType font and shaping-engine implementations. While Indic fonts made according to the earlier recommendations will still function properly in the new versions of Uniscribe, font developers may choose to update their fonts, particularly if they wish to avoid certain limitations of the earlier implementation.
This document presents information that will help font developers create or support OpenType fonts for the Telugu script covered by the Unicode Standard. The Telugu script is used to write the Telugu language of Andhra Pradesh, India, as well as the minority languages Gondi and Lambadi.
This document targets developers implementing Indic shaping behavior compatible with Microsoft OpenType specification for Indic scripts. It contains information about terminology, font features and behavior of the Indic shaping engine in regards to the Telugu script. While it does not contain instructions for creating Telugu fonts, it will help font developers understand how the Indic shaping engine processes Indic text. In addition, registered features of the Telugu script are defined and illustrated with examples.
The new Indic shaping engine allows for variations in typographic conventions, giving a font developer control over shaping by the choice of designation of glyphs to certain OpenType features. For example, the location where the reph and pre-pended matra are re-ordered within a syllable cluster is affected by the presence of a half form. See illustrations below.
Akhand ligatures - Required consonant ligatures that may appear anywhere in the syllable, and may or may not involve the base glyph. Akhand ligatures have the highest priority and are formed first; some languages include them in their alphabets.
Base glyph - The only consonant or consonant conjunct in the orthographic syllable that is written in its "full" (nominal) form. In Devanagari, the last consonant of the syllable (except for syllables ending with letter "Ra") usually forms the base glyph. In "degenerate" syllables that have no vowel (last letter of a word), the last consonant in halant form serves as the base consonant and is mapped as the base glyph. Layout operations are defined in terms of a base glyph, not a base character, since the base can often be a ligature.
Below-base form of consonants - A variant form of a consonant that appears below the base glyph. In Devanagari, only the consonant Ra has a below-base form. In the glyph sequence, the below-base form comes after the consonant(s) that form the base glyph. Below-base forms are represented by a non-spacing mark glyph.
Consonant - Each represents a single consonant sound. Consonants may exist in different contextual forms and have an inherent vowel (usually, the short vowel "a"). For example, "Ka" and "Ta", rather than just "K" or "T."
Halant form of consonants - The form produced by adding the Virama to the nominal shape. The Halant form is used in syllables that have no vowel or as the half form when no distinct shape for the half form exists.
Halant form of consonants - The form produced by adding the halant (virama) to the nominal shape. The Halant form is used in syllables that have no vowel or as the half form when no distinct shape for the half form exists.
Half form of consonants (pre-base form) - A variant form of consonants which appear to the left of the base consonant, if they do not participate in a ligature. Consonants in their half form precede the ones forming the base glyph. Some Indic scripts, like Devanagari have distinctly shaped half forms for most of the consonants. If not distinct shape exists, the full form will display with an explicit Virama (same shape as the halant form).
Matra (Dependent Vowel) - Used to represent a vowel sound that is not inherent to the consonant. Dependent vowels are referred to as "matras" in Sanskrit. They are always depicted in combination with a single consonant, or with a consonant cluster. The greatest variation among different Indian scripts is found in the rules for attaching dependent vowels to base characters.
New shaping behavior - Shaping behavior defined in this version of the Indic OpenType Font Specification. Information in this document relates primarily to the new implementation model. Old behavior may be mentioned in comments about compatibility.
Pre-base form of consonants - A variant form of a consonant that appears to the left of the base glyph. Note that most pre-base consonant forms are logically as well as visually before the base consonant. Half forms are examples of this kind of pre-base form. In some scripts, though, a pre-base Ra may logically follow the base consonant (that is, it follows it phonetically and in the character sequence of the text), even though it is presented visually before the base. The shaping engine detects such cases dynamically using the 'pref' feature and re-orders the pre-base-form glyph as needed.
Split Matra - A matra that is decomposed into pieces for rendering. Usually the different pieces appear in different positions relative to the base. For instance, part of the matra may be placed at the beginning of the cluster and another part at the end of the cluster.
Syllable - A single unit of Indic text processing. Shaping of Indic text is performed independently for each syllable. Process of identifying boundaries of each syllable is described below.
Telugu syllable - Effective orthographic "unit" of Telugu writing systems, consisting of a consonant and a vowel core, and optionally preceded by one or more consonants. Syllables are composed of consonant letters, independent vowels, and dependant vowels. In a text sequence, these characters are stored in phonetic order (although they may not be represented in phonetic order when displayed). Once a syllable is shaped, it is indivisible. The cursor cannot be positioned within the syllable. Transformations discussed in this document do not cross syllable boundaries.
The descriptions which follow will help font developers understand the rationale for the Telugu feature encoding model and help application developers better understand how layout clients can divide responsibilities with operating system functions.
Character properties are used in parsing syllables and identifying its parts, in determining proper character or glyph reordering and in OpenType feature application. Properties for each character are divided into two types: static properties and dynamic properties.
Static properties define basic characteristics that do not change from font to font: character type (consonant, matra, vedic sign, etc.) or type of matra reordering. They differ from script to script, but can't be controlled by font developer.
*Note: in old shaping-engine implementations, all consonant properties were static: consonants were assumed to have particular conjoining forms. In the new implementation model, consonant conjoining behavior is a dynamic property.
