New to both HarfBuzz and typography, and the nasty CTL. The goal is to use various CJK/Latin related OpenType features in shaping, at user's (my) choice. To name a few, <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://helpx.adobe.com/typekit/using/open-type-syntax.html#vert"> vert</a>, <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://helpx.adobe.com/typekit/using/open-type-syntax.html#pwid"> pwid</a>, <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://helpx.adobe.com/typekit/using/open-type-syntax.html#liga"> liga</a> and <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://helpx.adobe.com/typekit/using/open-type-syntax.html#onum"> onum</a>. Sorry if it's already documented somewhere, but <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://harfbuzz.github.io/shaping-and-shape-plans.html"> the docs at harfbuzz.github.io</a> seems unfinished, google search returned nothing relevant, examples at GitHub wiki didn't even mention about OpenType features, even the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://github.com/Robmaister/SharpFont.HarfBuzz"> C# binding</a> I'm using has a incomplete set of API (think that I can still pinvoke HarfBuzz dll as a workaround though) :/ It would be nice if you could answer these (stupid?) questions: <ul> <li>Does HarfBuzz simply take a list of OpenType features (or equivalent arguments) and shape them into the glyphs, or do I have to manually apply the features afterwards? </li><li>Which APIs are relevant? </li><li>Does the "direction"/"script"/"language" passed to HarfBuzz automatically set some features? </li></ul> Thanks in advance!
