Hi everyone, Is it possible to pass a character to another in MKIV, I mean, like XeTeX in which one can pass one unicode character to another one (this is done in some mapping files with some lines in it of the form U+0030 <> U+06F0 )
I'm not quite sure I understand you, but there is a mechanism so that you can write your own feature file with your own gsubs and gposs and then pass those along to luatex. This was broken in earlier versions of luatex; seems to be working now -- just checked. See below.
