Sorry mistakenly pressed enter and the issue got published without any content. I can't see any way to delete also. I will post the content of the issue soon.

Gujarati output (third line) seen in the following screenshot is unexpected.

A diacritic is misplaced, but maybe it is the font:

\def \examplefont{CODE2000.TTF}

@niruvt — thanks for spotting this. Could you provide an example using a freely available font (even better if in TeX Live)? The text could be updated as well if you wish.

@wspr thanks for the attention. I don't think any TL font (as of now) supports Gujarati script, but you can check out Mukta Vaani. In general, for most Indian scripts, the work of EkType can be considered de facto standard.

I think even Malayalam text is not rendered correctly.

These scripts require two settings enabled for correct typesetting. 1. Renderer=HarfBuzz 2. Script=XXXX (where XXXX stands for the script under consideration, Gujarati in this case). Is this the issue?
