            Bug ID: 136121
           Summary: some fonts do not render digits which used to in older
                    version
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: taher at pythys.com

Description:
In libreoffice 6.4.6.2 writer I cannot see the "digits" of certain fonts. For
example you can download and install the noto kufi font [1] and observe that
although you can type text, digits would show up as blank white spaces

In earlier versions of libreoffice, this was not a bug, so it is relatively
new.
