Similar to the reph, which joins with the vowel in order not to end up on the next syllable. In the other three fonts the candrabindu is too far to the right and might be covered by an i-vowel or another top mark on the following syllable. In Noto it might still touch an i-vowel or a mark to the right, but you can always recognise it. Which is definitely not the case in the other three fonts! \r\n\r\nnirmala.png\r\n![nirmala](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/9939212/8630608/ca82cb30-271c-11e5-9e5f-19e37b35a1f1.png)\r\n\r\nnoto.png\r\n![noto](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/9939212/8630610/d5dca6c2-271c-11e5-90a4-ff6524c046ff.png)\r\n\r\nsil.png\r\n![sil](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/9939212/8630613/df6d3760-271c-11e5-9f7a-849b079280da.png)\r\n\r\nutsaah.png\r\n![utsaah](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/9939212/8630615/ede5e29c-271c-11e5-84df-ae641c0f5be5.png)\r\n--- dougfelt commented on Jul 10\r\nThis is still an issue.\r\n\r\nIt seems that one could let the candrabindu be farther to the right when there was no mark for it to interfere with, and only use the squeezed position when necessary.  This would involve taking more context into account.  What do the other fonts do?  Does text with interfering marks occur frequently?\r\n--- JelleBosmaMT commented on Jul 11\r\nThis is NOT an issue!\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/googlei18n/noto-fonts/issues/comments/190107170","html_url":"https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-fonts/issues/474#issuecomment-190107170","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/googlei18n/noto-fonts/issues/474","id":190107170,"user":{"login":"JelleBosmaMT","id":12729011,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/12729011?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT","html_url":"https://github.com/JelleBosmaMT","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JelleBosmaMT/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-02-29T08:49:22Z","updated_at":"2016-02-29T08:49:22Z","body":"Bear in mind this is about type design, not about language.\r\n\r\nJelle\r\n\r\nOn 28-feb.-16 21:59, \"Xiangye Xiao\" <notifications@github.com> wrote:\r\n\r\n>@marekjez86 <https://github.com/marekjez86> please contact saroj if you\r\n>haven't.
