Monika Shah and Sonali Sonania reported a problem, which FreeSans seems to exhibit since merging with Gargi. The problem is probably related with GSUB/GPOS ordering in os/2 option in font info dialog box in fontforge tool. As far as we know this problem occurs when the vatu and rphf tag's used in devanagri / indian language scripts are mispositioned in the GSUB/GPOS ordering.
Problem do not occur in case of gargi font but problem occurs
with FreeSans font in openoffice. Might be problem with particular
rendering engine or it might be the case that other rendering
engines overlooks this part, But then how gargi works fine in
openoffice and FreeSans don't?
