Thank you Varun, I've seen it and then used harfbuzz-example for my test purposes also because fontstash-es kept on crashing (glfw example) or showed just squares instead of font (ios example). I've just checked fontstash-es first because I already worked with fontstash. The harfbuzz-example is working great!
By the way, are all the "corrections" written somewhere like in some documentation or does it all depend on the font? Also if I can't figure out the correction of the russian text in the harfbuzz-example. Is there anything different at all?
