Hi all,
I am now wondering how we can approach support for ideographic variation sequences
(IVS) in LibreOffice, which has been long requested as you can see at [1].
For our Linux story anyway I wonder why (these are new to me) icu
doesn't know about these already and "do the right thing" at least for
the purposes of rendering text. Maybe a dig into the icu trac on the ivs
search terms might throw up some additional info ?
So far, having read [2] about Mozilla's case, I think HarfBuzz looks promising for
the purpose. And employing the library has already been mentioned [3] in somewhat
different context in this list.
Yeah. FWIW it's also quite possible that icu might itself eventually end
up sitting on top of harfbuzz.
