Noto is a font family of open source fonts that is supposed to include all the font systems included in the Unicode Standard.

However, you could try Google’s Noto fonts. I would like to say that I have no experience with Hebrew and its peculiarities. One pitfall to avoid is to take the marks in a different font face than the to-be-accented character because the metrics are likely not to be compatible. It is font designer’s job to correctly position diacritical marks against all possible accented characters. Regarding 'pin-point accurate niqqud-to-letter spacing, this again depends on the font renderer and font metrics for the marks. the mentioned block also contains 8 (not 9, but I know nothing about Hebrew alphabet) wide letters you also find there U+FB4F HEBREW LIGATURE ALEF LAMED.Īs an example of a Unicode font including the Hebrew block, see Liberation Serif.However you can find many precomposed characters in the Alphabetic Presentation Forms block starting at U+FB40 (Hebrew sub-block), notably letters with dagesh. It is then up to you not to use it after letters whould should never be so marked. You type it after any character and it combines with the previous one. dagesh is a Unicode combining diacritical mark at U+05BC HEBREW POINT DAGESH OR MAPIQ.You won’t find “straight and backward-bent lamed” simultaneously in any Unicode compliant font. Consequently, slant angle is left to font designer, which means regular and oblique shapes live in different fonts. regular and bent letter: Unicode defines encoding for glyphs without specifying their exact appearance.

Behaviour of both suites may be different as they don’t use the same font renderer.Ī few answers in Unicode context (universal character repertoire): Here you’ll find answers to problems related to LibreOffice Writer. Unless you have not noticed it, you are not in a M$ Word site.
