Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.12; rv:50.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/50.0 Example URL: https://udm.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/File:Karaagac.jpg Steps to reproduce the problem: The Cyrillic letter "ӧ" is displayed incorrectly. It is supposed to have two dots above "о", like in the German and Turkish letter "ö", but instead the dots appear shifted forward. This is Unicode character U+04E7 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS, and it's used in the Udmurt, Komi, Mari and Altay languages. What is the expected behavior? The letter is supposed to have two dots above "о", like in the German and Turkish letter "ö". What went wrong? The dots appear shifted forward. Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes Is it a problem with a plugin? No Did this work before? N/A Does this work in other browsers? Yes Chrome version: <Copy from: 'about:version'> Channel: stable OS Version: 10 Flash Version: This works correctly in Firefox on Windows 10, and in all browsers on macOS Sierra.

Looks like the attachments somehow lost their extensions (.png), so reattaching now. The first one has a screenshot with Firefox, and the second with Chrome. I can see "ӧ" is rendered weirdly on Chrome.

Hmm, I don't see the pictures displayed inline. Maybe they are too big (7.4MB, 7.3MB). BTW, I got a quite different rendering on my Macbook Pro on Japanese locale (see attached screenshot). amir.aharoni@, what locale are you using (Hebrew?)

Oops - I got the wrong impression from the screenshots - This is a *Windows* specific issue, not on MacOS.

I confirmed this is reproducing on Windows10. The rendered font was "Georgia" on my environment. Dominik, could you take a look?

Yes, this is a Windows issue. I took the screenshots on macOS, with a remote connection to Windows. (And yes, my macOS locale is Hebrew. Language diversity is a good thing.) Do you need me to make new screenshots, or is the issue clear enough?

amir.aharoni@ thanks for the update, and sorry for my confusion. I think the problem is clear enough now.

Still broken in M68.

A couple of observations: * Broken with 'Georgia', fine with 'Arial'. * Broken in LayoutNG too. * Blink renders all glyphs in the <h1> in Georgia, while Gecko renders with Georgia and Times New Roman. Probably the font fallback? |
