Overlap Issue in Noto Sans Arabic #229
Comments
The tail of the zain touching the dots a little should be OK. The alternatives are probably worse (increasing the spacing which might introduce a visible gap, or moving the dots to the left which would clash with the dots of a following yeh or peh). |
I'm with Khaled on this one; just the construction of this font means that there's no real way to improve it. The Bold and Semibold touches are pretty minimal, and even in the condensed I don't think it affects comprehension at all. Notice that the Naskh has a different rhythm which is why the zain tail ends further out. |

Issue
There appears to be an overlapping issue with certain letters and dots. I only found this one, but there might be more.
It only happens in Noto Sans Arabic. It also only happens in certain weights. As far as I can tell, those are:
