[yanone]

I don't get the invalid-default-instance-subfamily-nameid FAIL when checking locally with the latest fontbakery.
Please also ignore the missing codepoints FAIL as this is a rendering bug update.

[m4rc1e]

@yanone the Malayalam has changed a fair bit. I don't know the script so I cannot confirm whether the changes are good or not?

[m4rc1e]

Here's a gif which compares a fallback font against the latest Arima. The latest Arima imo looks broken against the fallback

Can you please copy/paste the text that you used?

Take a look at the Regular diffenator report which the CI has generated for this PR.

[yanone]

Can't explain it myself. Posted an issue: NDISCOVER/Arima-Font#36

[yanone]

Response from author: Rendering is good an in accordance to script reform.

Please proceed with the publication.

[m4rc1e]

Thanks Yanone. I'll still bring this up in the management meeting later today.

[m4rc1e]

We're happy so I'll take one last later on.
