About harfbuzz
HarfBuzz is a text shaping engine that supports OpenType and Apple Advanced Typography. Text shaping converts written characters into positioned glyphs, taking account of font rules and language-specific presentation so text can be rendered correctly. A shaping engine provides this function to applications that display or process text. The supplied information identifies two typography systems that HarfBuzz supports but does not list language coverage, font features, rendering libraries, or platform compatibility. It also does not describe a user-facing interface. HarfBuzz is a technical component used by software that needs to turn text into correctly arranged glyphs, rather than a standalone word processor or font editor. Exact shaping behavior depends on the fonts and features supported by the calling application.
