Question

I have an issue with the Capsuula font. It's not rendering the T-comma or the t-comma characters properly, instead it defaults to a system font (Times New Roman in my case). This happens in both desktop and font-face version. I cannot use another font, as the company brand is based on it.

The fallback is to a totally different font

Is there something wrong with the character mapping or could there be something else? (several users have reported such issues).

Was it helpful?

Solution

The problem is that the font does not have these characters. It has the glyphs, but they're encoded at U+0162 and U+0163, not U+021A and U+021B where you are probably expecting them (or more likely where your keyboard driver is expecting them). What you're seeing is the result of a font fallback mechanism, trying to display something for the characters. It works, but it looks horrible as you've pointed out.

Ask the font developer to update the font, properly encode the glyphs at U+021A and U+021B.
