European characters recognized as Kanjis in composite fonts
I'm editing a Chinese document containing certain European characters such as ē and í.
I've created a composite font that uses Roboto for numbers and latin alphabets, and Noto Sans CJK for the Chinese characters.
Recently I noticed some of the European characters are incorrectly recognized as Kanjis, and are set to Noto Sans CJK instead of Roboto.
By testing my composite font settings, I confirmed that these misbehaving characters are being recognized as Kanjis (the top row in the composite font window).
- InDesign version: 17.3
- Create a composite font as shown in Screen Shot 1
- I expect all European characters to also be recognized as Latin alphabets
- Some of the European characters are recognized as Kanjis, as can be seen in Screen Shot 2. The difference is subtle, to compare, I placed two ē side by side, and manually set the left one to Roboto and the right one to the composite font, see Screen Shot 3.
