(open it in Safari to see different and worse rendering errors) Expected Results: 1. Render character-virama-character as a ligature, as described in http://www.unicode.org/standard/where/ 2. Line height should be sufficient to show the whole of characters with subscripts
The problem of ligatures - CONSONANT+VIRAMA (halant)+CONSONANT - rendered literaly (for example, SA+VIRAMA+KA rendered as is, and not as SKA, with a half SA for the S) has already been mentioned in: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212505 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166520 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205476

This is incorrect rendering on Firefox, especially the "matras" (vowels) are in the wrong place. The URL is http://devanaagarii.net/
