Ligatures support and kerning fix on Android

Post by StellarSans »

Some fonts do not show ligatures like Nimbus Roman/TeX Gyre Termes, Times New Roman, and Basic Roman, etc on Android. Some fonts don't have legacy kern tables.
When will that be fixed on the app? And how can I fix it?

Thanks. Will you let me know when you're adding GPOS tables (modern kerning tables) and ligatures to the SoftMaker Android app? And also, OpenType Features. An example font I will use is Andika SIL, Charis SIL and Gentium SIL. Those have OpenType features and GPOS tables, some have ligatures.
